China is scheduled to carry out its Mars exploration mission in 2020, as announced in a video released by the China National Space Administration on Dec 11. Wuhan-based Wuhan Wuchuan Heavy Equipment Engineering Co, a subsidiary of Wuchang Shipbuilding Industry Group Co, participated in the construction of a rapid servo system for the Mars low-gravity simulation experimental platform, which helps detectors land safely on Mars.

Tests continue for the servo system. On January 11, 2016, China's Mars exploration mission was officially launched. On July 18, 2018, Wuhan Wuchuan Heavy Equipment Engineering Co officially signed a contract for the construction of the Mars Landing Comprehensive Test Field, responsible for the construction of the Mars One lander simulated landing test platform.
