My theory that Americans will become mass moonlanding conspiracy theorists when China lands on the moon is increasingly becoming true

    Why are so many not wearing masks? Regardless of the moon rock exposure, we're in the middle of a worldwide pandemic. Have the Chinese forgotten already? Maybe they have a vaccine they didn't tell us about.

      Also there was literally zero risk of moon rock exposure. In the video they're taking the sample container out of the reentry capsule, the moon rocks themselves probably got taken out in a sterile lab environment.
