## Caption

“What would it mean if China were to put humans back on the moon first?” Bill Whitaker asks Scott Pace, who helped NASA develop the Artemis program. “It would be massively embarrassing,” Pace replies. However, Pace says establishing a sustained presence on the moon matters more than getting back to the lunar surface first. “Who sets the rules for the space domain, who is there permanently, that's a story for the next century,” he adds. #china #spacerace #Nasa #moon
