Lunar Exploration Program, said at a conference that <strong>they plan to launch a spacecraft called Tianwen-3 in 2030.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The mission plan includes two launches: one to carry a landing module and an ascent vehicle, and another to transport an orbiter and a return vehicle to Mars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The most efficient round-trip journeys to Mars require more than 500 days of travel, so <strong>even if China manages to launch Tianwen-3 in 2030, it would take several years before it returns with any red
