After the failure of 2012 China’s Mars Mission ‘Yinghuo-1’, the country is planning to launch its first Mars Mission ‘Tianwen-1’ in July 2020. It is expected to land on the Red Planet’s surface in the first quarter of 2021. If successful, China will become the third country to achieve a Mars landing after the USSR and the United States. It is named after the ancient Chinese poem ‘Questions to Heaven’.

Hence all statements are correct.
