The Russian cosmonaut Aleksei Leonov, the first man to walk in space, wrote, “Before me—blackness: an inky-black sky studded with stars that glowed but did not twinkle; they seemed immobilized.

...statement reacting to Al Qaeda's provocative remarks. Beijing has remained on the sidelines in the war on terror, watching the U.S. and other European nations become mired militarily in Afghanistan. But China's profile in the Muslim world still grows with its economic ambitions and interests. China's bottomless appetite for oil has led to its companies investing in every country along the Persian Gulf and other Muslim states.
