Will this complete the thunderbirds set or is there more to come?

> low-latitude and geographic proximity to the Equator

Good job they managed to find somewhere with both attributes, rather than just one or the other...

If they'd put it beside those new glaciers, it would be a bit closer to Space. Ergo less fuel required to get there. Good for Global Warming.

I saw this a few days ago and I wonder what a Chinese space theme park would consist of.

A lot of Hello Kitty plush toys in spacesuits.....???

BTW the Chinese are using synergistic thinking. They already have the Miss Universe contests there, so why not a space theme park for the letched out punters afterwards ?? :-)
