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.

Since May 2020, the co-production team has continued to track the key nodes of the Tianwen-1 mission, filmed many wonderful moments, and obtained a large number of first-hand precious materials. Many of the contents of the documentary were made public for the first time and were released authoritatively.
Broadcasting plan CCTV-1 CCTV integrated channel every night at 22:36, five days of continuous broadcast from May 18th to 22nd; CCTV-10 CCTV science and education channel every night at 20:10, from May 19th to 23rd five days of continuous broadcast
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!
Commemorating the first anniversary of the Tianwen-1 Mars probe’s successful landing on Mars! 2021.05.15-2022.05.15 At 7:18 Hong Kong SAR-Beijing Time.
on May 15, 2021, the scientific research team confirmed according to the telemetry signal sent by the “Zhurong” Mars rover that the Tianwen-1 landing rover successfully landed in the pre-selected landing area in the southern Utopia Plain of Mars , China’s first Mars exploration mission to land on Mars was a complete success…..
As the first mission of China – People’s Republic of China’s planetary exploration project, Tianwen-1 has realized the leap of my country’s space exploration from the Earth-Moon system to the interplanetary system. It is the first time in the world to complete the orbiting, landing, and inspection of Mars through a single mission. It is China- People’s Republic of China’s aerospace industry. Another milestone in development.

On the months of 5th 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 sent back stunning images of the Half Earth Mass size of the Rustic Planet Mars in which show stunning Martian landscape with its iconic polar caps of either southern or northern … With its timeless Stunning Mars Photography.

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.
Figure 3. Images of rocks distributed near impact craters on the Martian surface captured by the Navigation Terrain Camera
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.

Also on the 4th February 2022 Sunday the Winter Olympics begin! A blessing “falls from the sky” across 320 million kilometers! Previously, the mascots of the Beijing Winter Olympics and the Winter Paralympics, Bing DunDun and Xue RongRong, landed on Mars on Tianwen-1, and took a group photo with the Zhurong Mars rover, which was a dream ..
Also that Day the Tianwen-1 probe, the five-star red flag and the emblems of the Beijing Winter Olympics and Paralympic Games took a selfie in the same frame.
Crews are installing the emblem on the Mars orbiter
Beijing is the first city with both summer and winter Olympics, and Tianwen-1 is China’s first interplanetary exploration mission, sending the mascots and logos of the Winter Olympics and Paralympics to Mars. The Chinese expression is the Chinese nation’s advocacy and pursuit of faster, higher, stronger and more united.
This set of “cosmic-level” photos returned from Mars orbit was taken by the “selfie” camera carried by the Tianwen-1 probe. This group of photos is not only a “highest” Winter Olympics gift to friends on the ground, but also a highlight witness to the world’s shared Olympic moments!
As of February 4th 2022, Tianwen-1 has been in orbit for 561 days, and the Zhurong rover has worked for 259 Martian days, traveling a total of 1,537 meters. Both the orbiter and the rover are in good condition and operating normally.
