Russia plans missions to Mars and the Moon

Why do you think China allowed South Africa to join the Bric countries, duh? Access to African resources and land, heheheheheheh.

Totally true, but even Africa's resources are limited, it's an unstable region, and there is a lot of transportation involved in extracting/sercuring these resources. But true, China is a major player in Africa, and they will most likely become even bigger.

Edit: Purely talking about oil/energy in relation to Africa.
