On the months week of 20th May 2022 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 ……On the 20th May 2022 on the surface of Utopia Planitia on the Planet Mars doing the ultimate Selfie by the CNSA CLEP Tianwen Mars orbiting Probe Satellite obtaining The medium-resolution images obtained by the Tianwen-1 mission team through the orbiter found that the inspection area of the “Zhurong” Mars rover experienced an obvious sandstorm process. Scientists compared the typical landforms (especially the crater edge) in the 120m resolution images of the “Zhurong” inspection area on March 16 and April 30, 2022 (see Figures 1 and 2, respectively), combined with the recent Mars The change of the solar wing power generation current reflected by the telemetry information of the vehicle can be judged that the local area is experiencing strong sand and dust weather.

At present, the Mars rover inspection area has entered winter, and the highest temperature during the daytime has dropped to below minus 20°C, and the lowest temperature at night has dropped to minus 100°C. By mid-July, around the Martian winter solstice, the temperature will drop further. In order to cope with the reduction in the power generation capacity of the solar wing caused by the dusty weather and the extremely low ambient temperature in winter, according to the design plan and flight control strategy, the rover went into sleep mode on May 18. It is expected that around December this year, the “Zhurong” inspection area will enter the early spring season, and will resume normal work after the environmental conditions improve.

On today is of 15TH May 2022 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 year anniversary…The first anniversary of Tianwen-1 landing on Mars….. Tianwen-1 successfully landed in the southern part of the Martian Utopia Plain, leaving China’s mark on Mars for the first time. So far, it has worked on the surface of Mars for 356 Martian days and has travelled a total of mileage1921 meters. The orbiter has flown for 661 days since its launch, and has continued to carry out remote sensing detection since it entered the orbit around the fire red planet Mars of least haft diameter of Earth.
The first anniversary of Tianwen-1 landing on Mars On May 15, 2021, from since then At present, the two devices are in good condition, and about 940GB of original scientific data has been acquired and returned. Teams of scientists are conducting data analysis, interpretation and research…. .
Now we describe the one-year work process of Tianwen-1 through a long picture.
At present, the “Zhurong” Mars rover inspection area has entered winter, the highest temperature during the day has dropped to below minus 20 ℃, and the minimum temperature at night has dropped to minus 100 ℃, and sand and dust weather is frequent. Affected by the gradual reduction of the sun irradiation angle and the local sand and dust weather, the energy acquisition capacity of the “Zhurong” Mars rover has gradually decreased, and the thermal insulation consumption has gradually increased. To cope with this harsh environment, according to the design, the rover will switch to winter mode. The orbiter continues to carry out remote sensing exploration, and will soon achieve global coverage of Mars, while providing relay communication support for the rover.
Video review of Tianwen-1 – CNSA China National Space Administration Beijing Flight Control Center at the moment when Zhurong successfully landed on Mars, the achievement was hard-won, but the achievement was difficult, thank you for every effort and perseverance!

On the months of March 2022 the week of 13th May 2022 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 and the cute Mars Rover have reportingly to everyone, have a new discovery acquired recently : According to the obtained short-wave infrared spectrum and navigation and terrain camera data, a rocky plate-shaped hard shell was found in the landing area. By analysing the spectral data, it was found that these plate-like crusts similar to sedimentary rocks are rich in minerals such as hydrous sulfate. The research team of scientists deduced that these sulfate-rich crusts may have been formed by lithification after groundwater overflow or capillary evaporation and crystallization of salt minerals cemented the Martian soil. For the first time, water-bearing minerals were detected in situ on Mars using the short-wave infrared spectrometer on the rover…..
The findings suggest that water activity on Mars may have been more active during the Amazonian period than previously thought. My landing zone utopia Planitia and the broad area of the northern plains of Mars may contain large amounts of available water in the form of hydrous minerals for in situ resource utilization for future manned Mars exploration.
As of now, I have been in Utopia in the northern lowlands of Mars. After driving in the plain area for one year, the accumulated driving distance is nearly 2 kilometers, and a large amount of valuable scientific detection data has been obtained. Existing crater dating work shows that the landing zone is located in the Amazonian strata that have undergone late remodelling events, at the end of several major stages of Martian geological age (Pre-Noah, Noah, Occidental, and Amazonian), The climate has changed from warm and humid to cold and dry. Analysis of orbital remote sensing data shows that various geomorphological features distributed around the landing site (Fig. 1) indicate that there may have been a large amount of volatiles in the Utopian Plain. However, limited by the spatial resolution and coverage, orbital remote sensing data did not find water-bearing minerals near the landing area, which raised many questions about the formation mechanism of such landforms and the nature of water activity in the area.
Using short-wave infrared spectroscopy, the researchers detected water-bearing minerals in these bright-colored plate-like rocks that were not identified in the region by previous orbital data, presumed to be water-containing silica or water-containing sulfates (Figure 2). The research team believes that these bright-colored rocks are related to pirates. The broken rock observed in situ by the Mars 1 lander is similar in morphology, and is a layer of locally developed duricrust. However, the hard crust of the Viking 1 landing area is relatively brittle and thin, which may be formed by the long-term interaction of water vapor in the atmosphere and the soil on the surface of Mars. The hard crust of Zhurong’s landing site appears to be more resistant to erosion and forms a thick layer in the surrounding loose soil (Figure 3), which requires large amounts of liquid water, which cannot be formed by atmospheric water vapor alone. At the same time, the study found that there was no obvious surface runoff or traces left by the river in the landing area, and no fluffy surface and salt residues formed by the

Currently this month of 4th May 2022 it was National Youth Day on China – People’s Republic of China it’s been celebrated very year on the 4th of May, China celebrates Youth Day. The holiday is a day off for the citizens of China and it has been observed since 1949. It is a part of the May holidays, where the whole of China celebrate different occasions during 7 days of May, which is called the ‘golden week’ at one of many Observances. At Peking University, one of the top world top universities where the May Fourth Movement began, the holiday is celebrated with speeches, singing competitions, and other activities.
“Struggle is the most beautiful background of youth, and action is the most effective tempering of youth. With responsibility and responsibility, youth will shine.”
Youth is just as good as youth Actually Beijing understands that it is a young team of CNSA China National Space Administration Bao Shuo, 29, is a dispatcher of the Beijing Space Flight Control Center. “. She said that youth is for struggle; we must seize the moment, aim for a goal, a dream, and then work hard for it. Contribute to the country, regardless of age or gender; all Space Scientist Space Engineers ,Takionauts to whom are working hard for their aerospace dreams. Today, we walk with her and share the story of her and her team’s dream of spaceflight and writing youth with struggle….
On 4 May, 1919, student protests in Beijing erupted in the wake of the signing of the Treaty of Versailles, which ended World War I. The treaty, among other things, granted Japan control of Chinese territory in the Shandong Peninsula that Germany had held before the war. This enraged many Chinese who felt they had been betrayed.
Some of the students were arrested at first, but when protests spread and intensified, the Chinese government released the arrested student leaders.
The Fourth of May Movement came out of the protests. At first, it was a movement against imperialism and an attempt to reassert Chinese nationalism and culture. But it quickly diverted into a Communist ideology, and thus is seen as a beginning point to the establishment of the Communist People’s Republic of China.
In 1949, China established Youth Day as a public holiday to be observed every 4 May to remember the events of 1919 and all that followed them. There are special youth events, community service projects, and more organised all over China- People’s Republic of China

During the ring fire, all seven payloads carried by the “Tianwen-1” orbiter were powered on, and continued to carry out global remote sensing exploration of Mars. Figure 1 is a 0.8 m/pixel image taken by a high-resolution camera on April 17, 2022, of the Triolle crater on Mars, showing the “seasonal slope pattern” on the crater wall. Figure 2 is a local landform image of the Martian Sailor Valley captured by a medium-resolution camera on April 1, 2022, with a resolution of about 65 meters per pixel.

After the “Zhurong” Mars rover completed the 90-Mars day inspection mission on August 15, 2021, it will continue to carry out the expansion inspection and exploration mission. Figure 3 is an image of rocks distributed near impact craters on the Martian surface taken by the Navigation Terrain Camera on April 10, 2022 (the 323rd Martian day after landing). At present, the area where the “Zhurong” rover is located has entered winter. Similar to our earth, after entering winter, the altitude angle of solar illumination in the northern hemisphere area decreases and the duration of illumination shortens. According to the measurements, the local maximum temperature at noon on the rover has dropped to -20°C, and the ambient temperature at night is as low as -100°C. In addition, due to the presence of sand and dust weather, the light intensity is further weakened, which affects the power generation capacity of the solar wing battery array of the Mars rover. Recently, the engineering team adopted the rotation of the solar wing to adjust the light angle, reduce the daily work items and time, and achieve energy balance.

The rotation period of Mars is close to that of Earth. A Martian day is only about 40 minutes longer than that of Earth. The inclination of Mars’ rotation axis is 25.19°, which is also very close to Earth. Therefore, Mars also has day and night alternations and seasonal changes like Earth. The orbital period of Mars is about 687 days, that is, 1 Martian year is equivalent to 1.9 Earth years, which means that the average duration of each season on Mars is about twice as long as on Earth.
When the “Zhurong” first landed last year, when Mars moved to the vicinity of the aphelion, the direct sunlight point was in the northern hemisphere. At that time, the northern hemisphere had just entered summer and the southern hemisphere had entered winter. Now, nearly a year after landing on Mars, Mars is running near the perihelion, and the direct sun is in the southern hemisphere. The northern hemisphere where “Zhurong” is located is entering winter and the southern hemisphere is entering summer.
In the next two months, the direct sun point will continue to move to the south of Mars, reaching around the Tropic of Cancer around mid-to-late July, when Mars’ northern hemisphere will enter the coldest season of the year. In order to safely survive extreme weather such as Martian winter and sandstorms, the “Zhurong” rover has designed working modes such as autonomous sleep. When the energy is reduced to a certain level, it will automatically enter the sleep mode. After the environmental conditions gradually improve, it will return to normal Operating mode.
