Will the Little Green Men know the difference between the
Little Yellow Men and the Big Black Men?

I can already imagine a whole new class of ethnic jokes based on the
concept: "Earthlings, they all look alike".

During South Africa's apartheid the Japanese were white and the Chinese
were coloured. Apparently ethnicity is technology dependent, the boers
wanted Sony TVs in exchange for crystalline carbon baubles and soft
yellow metal useful for its non-corrosive and conductive properties but
not much else.

The easy way to tell a big black man from a little yellow man is to listen.
If you hear a basketball bouncing and Nike's squeaking you'll know
which variety doesn't ride bicycles. Little green men are quite easy,
they are the ones with the antennae - presumably for inbuilt Sony TVs.
Little red men have always wanted to fly, they have multiple antennae.

Perhaps the chinese will bring the flag back :-)

NASA couldn't engineer a decorative douche nozzle. (I'm thinking MACOR
machinable ceramic with ion-plated titanium nitride gilding plus CVD
hafnium carbonitride for black accents.)

I hope that they do. It would be a wake-up call for America.

Sadly, pretty much all of the old farts who engineered the moon
program have all passed away, and the new kids on the block make it
evident that they haven't a clue.

Too bad that nobody bothered to take careful notes!

I would expect them to set up Chinese restaurants,
so that when the US astronuts land, they can order some nice food.
Of course it will be expensive, dollar versus yuang(or whatever it is called)
will have dropped lots more by then.
And gold is too heavy to bring along.
Maybe then can work in the kitchen as diswasher.

Or the results of their Eotvos experiments for Schwartz.

Or do the laundry, or build railroads. Ha! glasshopper, walk on
