With the rapid development of planetary science and deep space exploration, astrobiology has been turned into a crucial frontier discipline. Artificial space analogs manipulated by simulation facilities are powerful tools for astrobiological research. Laboratory-based planetary environment simulation serves as an important complement to remote sensing and in-situ detection, providing indispensable support for planetary science research. This paper reviews several representative planetary environment simulation facilities, including their functional designs and astrobiological experiments. They have been proven to be promising and useful for studies of extraterrestrial life signal detection and life adaptation strategies under Mars-like extreme conditions. Last but not least, a practical outlook on the future development and scientific research of planetary environment simulation devices are further discussed.
