China landing on the darkside of the moon. Fact or fakenews?

Why do we now always assume something is fake news? Are we so jaded and cynical that we are now permanently in full 'glass half empty' mode and prepared to question even the most innocuous news stories?

I think absolutely factual, I cannot see what China would have to gain by fabricating a story like this and the only reason for anyone in the West, particularly the US would have for planting seeds of doubt is jealously due to their fear of China claiming 'rights' to parts of the moon and getting their hands on any useful rare earth minerals that maybe up there. This is of course a worry that land grab will take place in space by the richest countries, but not unexpected.

China has nothing to gain by lying about their mission and everything to gain by it being true and their lunar program has been well documented and observed in all its stages.

Great news and rather exciting I think and no cause to doubt at all. Just wait until they build their great wall of China's moon which we will be able to see from earth. It could be the first man made wonder of the universe. Then there will be no doubt lol ;-)
