　　Newly from its second manned spaceship, China’s space program wants to be able to put a man on the moon and build a space station in 15 years, an official said Sunday．

　　“I think in about 10 to 15 years, we will have the ability to build our own space station and to carry out a manned moon landing,”said Hu Shixiang, deputy commander of China’s manned spaceship program．

　　But the plan depends on the money getting from the government, Hu said, explaining that the space program must fit in the larger plan of the country’s overall development．

　　Hu was in Hong Kong with the two astronauts who piloted China’s second successful manned spaceship in October．He spoke during a television talk with executives from various television stations and newspapers．

　　Hu dismissed suggestions the space program is too costly for a country that, despite rapid economic growth, is still struggling to put an end to rural poverty．He noted the recent space ship cost ＄111.4 million, compared to the ＄23.5 billion that China spent on fighting against pollution last year．
