Is China ahead of the US in the new race for the moon?

On the face of it, it looks like America and its international and commercial allies should get back to the moon years before China, if everything turns out right, avoiding the embarrassment of being beaten in Moon Race 2.0.

Space Race 2.0 Is On: Chang’e 6 Heads To The Moon

Not all of China’s space efforts are focused on science or on exploration. There is a serious race to the Moon in a quest for mineral resources and China is sending us a message with this mission. Chang’e 6 will land in the resource-rich South Pole-Aitken (SPA) basin. Specifically, China is targeting a crater called “Apollo” which is named in honor of America’s great lunar achievement. Apollo’s interior and adjacent craters are named for Apollo astronauts and memorialize deceased NASA employees including the lost crew of the Space Shuttle Columbia. Chang’e 6 will literally raise a communist Chinese flag there. The Chinese are extremely careful with protocol, any small slight is intentional.
