#1 Why not? Let them spend some dollars and visit but they don't own it.

#2 The EU has been trying to partner with China to overtake US space programs for some time. This is another of their attempts and might well work, given the decrepitude of our space expertise of late.

#3 Right. Because partnering with EUrope has been beneficial for the US in so many ways. The only thing it will do is reduce the number of covert Chinese spies in EUrope. Otherwise the EUropeans are an anchor as the Chinese will learn to their detriment. EUrope will succeed only in relative terms due to our decrepitude.

Oh, I didn't say the Chinese were signing up to join with the EUros, just that the latter have been wooing them assiduously for some time.
