BEIJING: The first crew for China's new space station prepared to blast off this week for the latest step in Beijing's ambitious programme to establish itself as a space power.
The mission is China's first crewed spaceflight in nearly five years, and a matter of prestige for the government as it prepares to mark the 100th birthday of the ruling Communist Party on July 1 with a propaganda blitz.
A Long March-2F rocket carrying three astronauts in the Shenzhou-12 spacecraft is slated to lift off from a base in northwest China's Gobi desert on Thursday, according to experts with knowledge of the matter.

Space Stations are fake
No-one is up there
Too much radiation
If pilots suffer from cancer due to radiation exposure during plane flights--astronauts would all have cancer
No gravity--you cant poop in space
Are we expected to believe they suction it out
Then what do they do with it
Send it back to earth or dump it into orbit

What does gravity have to do with pooping?
