I didn't see this in any local newspaper...
China will launch a joint mission with Russia to Mars, a "milestone" in space co-operation between the two countries.

The agreement was signed during a three-day visit to Russia by China's president Hu Jintao.

A small satellite developed by China will piggyback on the Russian launch of a spacecraft called "Phobos Grunt", probably in October 2009.
