If they mean remote sensing like what we are doing on Mars, there is a lot to be done for the moon since that was skipped along with the entire follow-on to Apollo.
We were light-years ahead of them. They were still getting around by oxcart when Neil Armstrong was walking on the moon. Damned Luddite 'rats. They're to blame for this. They held us back and gave the oxcart people time to catch up.
Well Russia just claimed the north poll. Suspect China will claim the moon.
