The China National Space Administration has announced its intention to send a probe to Mars in 2009. Russia will work with China on the project. The Chinese probe is to be sent to Mars with the use of a Russian rocket. China also hopes to land an astronaut on the Moon within the next fifteen years. These plans seem to reflect China's hopes of becoming a significant presence in space.
