China is planning its first trip to Mars in 2033 | Science and Technology Issues
The quest for prominence is part of a plan to build the foundations of the Red Planet, in a strong fight against the US.
China is planning to send its first mission to Mars in 2033, with frequent expeditions, under a long-term plan to create a settlement on Red Planet and clear its assets.
The arrogant plan, which will help competition with the United States to place people on Mars, was unveiled in detail for the first time after China landed on a robot on Mars in mid-May in his first career on earth.
Mars launches in 2033, 2035, 2037, 2041 and beyond, China’s chief rocket developer Wang Xiaojun told a Russian exploration conference recently with a video link.
Prior to its deployment, China will send robots to Mars to explore potential locations and build spacecraft, China Space News reported on Wednesday, citing Wang, a leader of China Academy of Launch Vehicle Technology.
In order for humans to survive on Mars, pilots have to use the earth’s resources, such as to generate groundwater, generate air, and generate electricity.
China also needs to develop technology to fly travelers back to Earth.
A pilot project to find land from the ground is expected by the end of 2030.
NASA, the United States Astronomical Observatory, has been developing the human experience of recruiting Mars’ crew and returning sometime in the 2030’s.
China’s plan for Mars is considering a spacecraft between Earth and Mars and a major development of its weapons, Wang said.
In order to shorten travel time, spacecraft should take in energy from nuclear sources such as heat and electricity, in addition to the chemical causes, Wang said.
China should continue its flights with air travel “in a few days”, he said.
China is planning to lay the foundation for the southern part of the Moon and is driving robotics to asteroids and Jupiter by the 2030s.
Last week, China sent three astrologers to unfinished business to complete their first mission since 2016, expanding its presence near Earth and challenging US leadership in the surrounding areas.
