BEIJING, CHINA ( Reuters)—China and Russia will make a joint effort to explore Mars and one of its moons in 2009, Chinese media reported on Wednesday following an agreement to strengthen cooperation between the two ambitious(雄心勃勃的) space powers.

A Russian rocket will lift a Chinese satellite and Russian exploration spaceship to survey Mars and Phobos, the biggest of the red planet’s moons, China Daily reported, declared by China’s National Space Administration.

The announcement followed an agreement signed on Monday in Moscow, which Chinese President Hu Jintao has been visiting. A Chinese space official said the agreement would strengthen cooperation between China and Russia, both eager to expand their presence in space as the United States seeks to keep its lead.

“It shows the two sides have taken a key step forward to working on a large space program,’ said the official, according to China Daily.The small Chinese satellite will explore Mars while the Russian spaceship will land on Phobos to explore the environment and dig soil samples（樣品）.

In 2003, China put a man in space, becoming only the third county to achieve the feat (功績(jī)) after the United States and the Soviet Union(前蘇聯(lián)). It launched a second manned space flight last year and plans to land a person on the moon.

The United States has announced its own plans to expand exploration of Mars and send a manned spaceship there. Washington scolded Beijing in January for testing an anti-satellite missile (導(dǎo)彈、飛彈)that destroyed an old Chinese satellite, scattering（散落） debris(碎片) that could damage other satellites.
