China builds Mars sample lab

China plans to establish a planetary protection laboratory in the city of Hefei to support the upcoming Mars sample return mission, expected to be launched around 2028. The mission will involve sterilizing, processing, and assessing the biological risks of the samples, with the goal of protecting Earth from biological contamination and safeguarding scientific research results. The collection and return of samples are scheduled to be completed by 2031. The laboratory is part of China's efforts to explore the planets, following the successful landing of the Tianwen-1 rover on Mars in May 2021 and its extensive scientific data collection.
