Apparently the Chinese love Bowie too

I’ve actually been following it for a week or two I guess.  Nothing terribly exciting about it other than it’s the Chinese circling the Moon.  That’s kinda new.  Now, this to me is where it gets kinda weird.  Wanna guess the name of their ship?  Chang’e One.

Now, for the newer Bowie fans, that’s probably meaningless.  However, for the OLD Bowie fans like me, their first exposure to Bowie was very possibly his first greatest hits album.  That album was called Changesonebowie.

Coincedence?  Maybe.  Maybe not.

      [...] couple of weeks or so I posted the Chang’e 1’s picture of the Moon on my Bowie blog because they named their spaceship after a Bowie album. That was about as exciting as I thought [...]
