China embarrassed as space launch set to America the Beautiful (http://www.theprovince.com/technology/China+embarrassed+space+launch+America+Beautiful/5482894/story.html?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter)
A video animation put together by state television to mark the highly publicized launch of Tiangong-1 — or "Heavenly Palace" — is set to the music of "America the Beautiful", a patriotic song about the United States.
"At the time, I was eating in a hotel with foreigners from an American company and Chinese clients and we were watching the live broadcast," posted one user on Sina's Weibo, China's answer to Twitter.
"All the Chinese there wanted to disappear," he said of the embarrassed response.
lol bunch of amateurs. I doubt it was a mistake, they probably watched big televised events from the states and tried to replicate it :lol
