Fresh from its second manned space mission, 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 space flight program.
