 天问一号飞運騎遊達达3亿CNSA – China National Space Administration – ESA – European Space agency Belt and road initiative mars mission…first Mars exploration mission, Tianwen- Martian Probe One As of September 15, 2022, the Tianwen-1 orbiter has been in orbit for more than 780 days, and the rover has travelled a total of 1,921 meters, completed the established scientific exploration tasks, and obtained 1,480 GB of original scientific exploration data. The scientific research team has obtained rich scientific results through the research on the first-hand scientific data obtained independently by my country. Through a comprehensive study of typical landforms such as concave cones, barrier craters, and trenches distributed in the landing area, the important connection between the formation of the above-mentioned landforms and water activities has been revealed.

Currently as to date of the Zhurong Mars Rover is currently at sleep safe mode due to the Martian Sandstorms….. the location of Zhurong taken by the Tianwen-1 orbiter after it hibernated in Zhurong last year. The rut marks left by Zhurong after traveling 1921 meters are clearly visible….. The local dust on Mars captured by the Tianwen-1 orbiter is very layered. This photo was taken by the medium-resolution camera of the Tianwen-1 orbiter on January 6, 2022, and Zhurong went into a dormant state more than three months after this time point. 

On the week of 6th June 2023 there have been new images release of the CNSA –CLEP Mars The Lunar and Planetary Data Publishing System released a new batch of Tianwen-1 data today, including a large number of Martian surface photos taken by the obiter’s medium-resolution camera! The total number is estimated to be hundreds to thousands!  But here are some stunning incredible randomly selected a few pictures is beautiful in which has been process during the Month of December 2021 at the time when before the Martian Sandstorm!

Some of the images taken by the Zhurong rover in December 2021 come from the latest data released by the China Planetary Exploration Engineering Ground Application System.


The famous Olympus Mons (Olympus Mons), a giant shield volcano on the northwest side of Mars Tharsis (Tharsis). This image is stitched together from 6 MoRIC images selected from the December 2021-detection cycle 00734 data released today, and processed using OpenCV, SKImage, and Lr. [CAS/GRAS, CNSA/PEC; export production

Selected from the December 2021 data set of the medium-resolution camera of the Tianwen-1 orbiter, source: China Planetary Exploration Engineering Ground Application System​​​​….

On August 15, 2021, the “Zhurong” rover successfully completed the 90 Martian scientific exploration missions, and continued to carry out extended exploration missions. It has traveled 1,921.5 meters on the surface of Mars. Affected by the severe winter cold and dusty weather in the landing area, the rover will enter the winter dormancy mode on May 18, 2022 as designed. Around December 2022, the “Zhurong” landing area will enter the early spring season. will resume normal work.

The orbiter has circled Mars 1,344 times, achieving global coverage and is currently in normal condition. In the follow-up, it will continue to carry out global remote sensing detection, and choose an opportunity to carry out expansion technology experiments to carry out preliminary technical verification for related tasks.

After nearly two years of flight and exploration for the Tianwen-1 mission, the 13 scientific payloads deployed by the rover and orbiter have obtained a total of about 1040GB of raw scientific data. After receiving and processing on the ground, the standard scientific data products formed are submitted to the rover on a monthly basis. A team of scientists has conducted analysis and interpretation, and relevant scientific results have been published in well-known academic journals at home and abroad. These scientific data will be open to scientists around the world at an appropriate time. Scientists around the world are welcome to actively apply for research and jointly promote the cause of human exploration of the universe.

At present, the Tianwen-1 orbiter continues to carry out scientific exploration in the orbit of the remote sensing mission, continues to accumulate first-hand scientific data, and makes China’s contribution to mankind’s in-depth understanding of Mars.

Symposium on Scientific Research Achievements of the First Mars Exploration Mission Held

​​On September 16, 2022, the first seminar on scientific research achievements of Mars exploration missions was held in Beijing in a combination of online and offline methods, aiming to strengthen the exchange of scientific research results of Tianwen-1.

 天问一号飞運騎遊達达3亿CNSA – China National Space Administration – ESA – European Space agency Belt and road initiative mars mission…first Mars exploration mission, Tianwen- Martian Probe One As of September 15, 2022, the Tianwen-1 orbiter has been in orbit for more than 780 days, and the rover has travelled a total of 1,921 meters, completed the established scientific exploration tasks, and obtained 1,480 GB of original scientific exploration data. The scientific research team has obtained rich scientific results through the research on the first-hand scientific data obtained independently by my country. Through a comprehensive study of typical landforms such as concave cones, barrier craters, and trenches distributed in the landing area, the important connection between the formation of the above-mentioned landforms and water activities has been revealed.

Fig. 2 Schematic diagram of the plate-like hard-shell rock rich in water-bearing minerals found in the landing area by Zhurong and its formation process under the action of groundwater

Through camera images and spectral data, hydrous minerals were found in plate-like hard-shell rocks near the landing area, proving that there has been a large amount of liquid water activity in the landing area since 1 billion years ago (late Amazonian period).

Combined with camera images and rover moving ruts and other information, it is found that the soil in the landing area has strong compressive strength and low friction parameters, which are related to water activity and experience sand erosion.

Fig. 4 Analysis results of Martian soil mechanical parameters in the landing area of ​​Zhurong

These new results reveal the impact of Martian sandstorm and water activities on geological evolution and environmental changes, provide strong support for the conjecture that there was an ocean in the Martian Utopian Plain, and enrich human scientific understanding of Martian geological evolution and environmental changes. The relevant results have been published in authoritative academic journals at home and abroad such as “Nature Astronomy”, “Nature Geoscience”, “Science Advances”, “Science of China” and so on.

In addition, the scientific research team also used the detection data of Tianwen-1 to obtain a batch of data on the relationship between the density of rocks on the surface of Mars and the degree of surface erosion, the distribution of ions and neutral particles in the near-fire space environment, and the gravitational field of Mars. Excellent scientific results.

At present, the Tianwen-1 orbiter continues to carry out scientific exploration in the orbit of the remote sensing mission, continues to accumulate first-hand scientific data, and makes China’s contribution to mankind’s in-depth understanding of Mars.
