天问一号飞運騎遊達达3亿 …….As of 7th June 2021 Monday CNSA – China National Space Administration – ESA – European Space agency Belt and road initiative mars mission…first Mars exploration mission, Tianwen- Martian Probe One …….”祝融号Zhu Rong” Mars Lander – Mars rover successfully sent back telemetry towards China National Space Administration released a high-resolution image of the landing area of ​China- People’s Republic of China’s first Mars exploration Tianwen-1 mission. The image of the Zhongtianwen-1 landing platform, the “Zhurong” rover and the surrounding area are clearly visible.

The image was taken at 18:00 on June 2 by the high-resolution camera of Tianwen-1 surround. After landing, there are two obvious bright spots in the upper right corner of the image. The upper bright spot is composed of two bright spots. The larger bright spot is the Tianwen-1 landing platform, and the smaller bright spot is the “Zhurong” rover. With the bright spot of the landing platform as the center, the surrounding area is darker. According to analysis, it may be caused by the engine plume during the landing. There are symmetrical jet-like bright stripes in the north-south direction of the landing platform, which may be formed by blowing off fine dust when the landing platform is passivated after landing. The bright spot in the middle of the image is the combination of the back cover and the parachute thrown away during the landing on Mars, in which the back cover is a round bright spot, and the parachute is a long strip of bright spot. In the lower left direction of the image, there is another obvious bright spot, which is a heat-proof outsole thrown away during the landing.

As of today, the “Zhu Rong” rover has been working on the surface of Mars for 24 Martian days, carrying out environmental perception, fire surface movement, and scientific exploration. All scientific load equipment has been activated to obtain scientific data. The orbiter runs in a relay orbit with a period of 8.2 hours and provides relay communication for the scientific exploration of the Mars rover.

国家航天局发布我国首次火星探测任务天问一号着陆区域高分影像图

2021年6月7日，国家航天局发布我国首次火星探测天问一号任务着陆区域高分影像图。图像中天问一号着陆平台、“祝融号”火星车及周边区域情况清晰可见。 

影像图由天问一号环绕器高分辨率相机于6月2日18时拍摄。着陆后图像右上角有两处明显亮斑，靠上的亮斑由两个亮点组成，较大亮点为天问一号着陆平台，较小亮点为“祝融号”火星车。以着陆平台亮点为中心，周围区域颜色较暗，据分析，可能是降落过程中受到发动机羽流影响造成。着陆平台南北方向，存在对称的喷射状亮条纹，可能是着陆后着陆平台钝化时吹除了较细的尘埃形成。图像中部亮斑为降落火星过程中抛离的背罩及降落伞组合体，其中背罩为圆形亮点，降落伞为长条状亮点。图像左下方向，存在另外一处明显的亮斑，为降落过程中抛离的防热大底。 

截至今天，“祝融号”火星车在火星表面已工作24个火星日，开展环境感知、火面移动、科学探测，所有科学载荷设备均已开机工作，获取科学数据。环绕器运行在周期8.2小时的中继轨道，为火星车科学探测提供中继通信。

天问一号飞運騎遊達达3亿 …….As of 15th May 2021 CNSA – China National Space Administration– ESA – European Space agency Belt and road initiative mars mission…first Mars exploration mission, Tianwen- Martian Probe One …….”祝融号Zhu Rong” Mars Lander – Mars rover successfully sent back telemetry signals and landed on Mars with a complete success

At 7:18 Hong Kong SAR – Beijing Time  on May 15th 2021 , the scientific research team confirmed according to the telemetry signal sent by the “Zhurong” Mars rover that the Tianwen 1 Landing Patrol successfully landed in the pre-selected landing zone in the southern Utopia Plain of Mars, and my country’s first Mars exploration mission landing on Mars was achieved. A complete success.

At about 1 am, the Tianwen-1 probe was de-orbited in its parked orbit, maneuvering to Mars and entering orbit. At about 4 o’clock, the landing patrol was separated from the orbiter. After about 3 hours of flight, it entered the Martian atmosphere. After about 9 minutes of deceleration, hovering, obstacle avoidance and buffering, it successfully landed on the pre-selected landing zone. About 30 minutes after the two devices are separated; the orbiter will ascend and return to the parking orbit to provide relay communication for the landing patrol device. In the follow-up, the “Zhurong” rover will successively carry out global imaging of the landing site, self-check, leave the landing platform and carry out inspections.

China – People’s Republic of China first Mars exploration mission was formally approved in 2016. It plans to realize Mars circumnavigation, landing and patrol through a mission, conduct global and comprehensive circumnavigation detection of Mars, and carry out regional patrol surveys on the surface of Mars. The Tianwen-1 probe is composed of an orbiter and a landing patrol device. The landing patrol device includes the “Zhurong” Mars rover and the entry module. Since its successful launch on July 23, 2020, the probe completed one deep-space manoeuvre and four midway corrections during the ground-fire transfer phase. On February 10, it successfully implemented Mars capture and entered a large elliptical fire orbit China’s – People’s Republic of China first artificial Mars satellite. On February 24, 2021, the Tianwen-1 probe successfully implemented the third near-fire braking, and after entering the Mars mooring orbit with a period of 2 Mars days, it carried out a global remote sensing survey of Mars and conducted a detailed investigation of the pre-selected landing area. , Detect and analyse topography, sand and dust weather, etc., in preparation for landing on Mars. During the implementation of the mission, the China National Space Administration and ESA, Argentina, France, Austria and other international space organizations and national space agencies have carried out relevant project cooperation. At present, the probe has been in space for 295 days, about 320 million kilometers from the earth.

Mars exploration is highly risky and difficult. The exploration mission faces challenges such as the interplanetary space environment, Mars’ thin atmosphere, and the topography of the fire surface. At the same time, it is affected by long distances and long-time delays. The landing stage has uncertain environments, complex landing procedures and ground Difficulties such as inability to intervene. The Tianwen-1 mission broke through key technologies such as the second cosmic speed launch, interplanetary flight, measurement and control communication, and soft landing on extraterrestrial planets, and achieved my country’s first extraterrestrial planet landing, making my country the second successful landing on Mars after the United States The country is another significant milestone in the development of China’s aerospace- Space exploration industry….

With the China National Space Administration released two sideways images of Mars in the southern and northern hemispheres taken by my country’s first Mars exploration mission, Tianwen-1. In the image, Mars has a “crescent” shape with clear surface texture. The Tianwen-1 probe flew to a distance of 11,000 kilometers from Mars and used a medium-resolution camera to take a panoramic view of Mars. At this time, because the probe is in the sky behind the Mars side (to face the sun as the front), two “sideways” images are obtained. At present, the Tianwen-1 probe has been in orbit for a month, and the high-resolution camera, medium-resolution camera, mineral spectrometer, Mars energy particle Analyzer, ion and neutral particle Analyzer, magnetometer and other loads have been turned on one after another. , Carry out exploration of Mars and obtain scientific data.

The southern hemisphere image was taken by the Tianwen-1 medium-resolution camera on March 16, 2021, Beijing time. At this time, the orbital height of the orbiter was about 11,200 kilometers.

The northern hemisphere image was taken by the Tianwen-1 medium-resolution camera on March 18, 2021 Beijing time. At this time, the orbital height of the orbiter was about 11,500 kilometers….

After 3 months of detailed surveys, the orbiter will undergo a certain orbit adjustment and be separated from the lander/patrol unit. The latter will start an independent Mars landing process of about 7 minutes. Due to the long distance between Mars and the Earth, which leads to a communication delay of tens of minutes, it is impossible for the CNSA crew to control the landing process, and must let the lander complete this “black seven-minute” journey fully autonomously…..

The panchromatic image was taken by a high-resolution camera at an altitude of about 330 kilometers to 350 kilometers from the surface of Mars, with a resolution of about 0.7 meters. In the imaging area, small ring craters, ridges, sand dunes and other landforms on the surface of Mars are clearly visible. The diameter of the largest impact crater is about 620 meters. The color image was taken by a medium-resolution camera, and the picture shows the north pole of Mars.

Starting on February 26 2021, Tianwen-1 has carried out scientific exploration in the parked orbit, and scientific payloads such as the orbiter high-resolution camera, medium-resolution camera, and mineral spectrometer have been turned on one after another to obtain scientific data. The high-resolution camera on the orbiter is equipped with two imaging detectors, which can realize linear array push-broom and area array imaging, and carry out fine observation of topography and landforms in key areas. The medium-resolution camera has the functions of automatic exposure and remote control of exposure adjustment, and can draw global remote sensing image maps of Mars to detect the topography and changes of Mars Tianwen No.1 probe shoots high-definition Mars image…..

Black-and-white or color photos are related to the shooting mode. The high-resolution camera photos are taken by the linear array push sweep method when the detector is running on a large elliptical orbit. They are divided into full color, color, and custom. The full-color (i.e. black and white) image is the clearest, the data volume is the largest, and the scientific value is the highest. The definition of a color image is a quarter of that of a full-color image. After the image fusion processing of panchromatic and color mode, a clear and beautiful color image will be obtained. The medium-resolution camera has only one static shooting mode, which is to use the “gaze” shooting mode, so that the camera has been “gazing” at a certain area, and the overall resolution will be relatively low.
