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….

Previously ….天问一号飞運騎遊達达3亿 …….As of 26th   March 2021, CNSA – China National Space Administration- ESA – European Space agency Belt and road initiative mars mission…first Mars exploration mission, Tianwen- Martian Probe One ……. 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….

天问一号飞運騎遊達达3亿 ….As of 17th  March 2021, CNSA – China National Space Administration- ESA – European Space agency Belt and road initiative mars mission…first Mars exploration mission, Tianwen- Martian Probe One ……. Tianwen-1 is currently in the mooring orbital phase, and all seven orbiter payloads have been powered on for preliminary scientific exploration, to achieve stable communication between the Earth and Mars, and to provide signal relay services for future patrols landing on Mars. Every two days, it arrives at a near-fire point, only about 280 kilometers away from Mars………

 The medium-resolution camera, high-resolution camera, and spectrometer in the payload will pre-select the topography and landforms of the low-latitude landing area such as the southern Utopia Plain. , Sand and dust weather, etc. to conduct detailed investigations to assess the feasibility of the Martian environment and landing timing……

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…..

 

Previously…..   天问一号飞運騎遊達达3亿 …….As of the afternoon Chinese Lunar New Year festival week holidays afternoon 4th March 2021, CNSA – China National Space Administration- ESA – European Space agency Belt and road initiative mars mission…first Mars exploration mission, Tianwen- Martian Probe One released three high-definition Mars image maps taken by China – People’s Republic of China first Mars exploration mission Tianwen-1 probe, including two full-color images and one color image……

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.

天问一号飞運騎遊達达3亿 …….As of the early morning January 3rd 2021, CNSA – China National Space Administration- ESA – European Space agency Belt and road initiative mars mission…first Mars exploration mission, Tianwen- Martian Probe One …… The Tianwen-1’s flight mileage exceeded 400 million kilometers….. As of 6:00 on January 3, the Tianwen-1 probe has been in orbit for 163 earth days, with a flight mileage of over 400 million kilometers, about 130 million kilometers from the earth, and about 8.3 million kilometers. The probe has a stable attitude. According to the plan, it will implement near-fire braking in more than a month, enter the ring-fire orbit, and prepare to land on Mars.

The Tianwen-1 mission is the first step in China- People’s Republic of China independent interplanetary exploration. It will “circle, land, and patrol” Mars through a single launch, that is, Mars orbit, Mars landing, and fire patrol. The Tianwen-1 probe has a total weight of about 5 tons and is composed of an orbiter and a landing patrol device. The landing patrol device mainly includes an entry module and a Mars rover. At present, the orbiter has completed the third on-orbit self-check, and all systems are working normally…..

截至2021年1月3日6时，天问一号探测器已在轨飞行163天，飞行里程突破4亿公里，距离地球约1.3亿公里，距离火星约830万公里，飞行状态良好。按计划将在一个多月后实施近火制动，进入环火轨道。

天问一号任务是我国独立开展行星际探测的第一步，旨在通过一次发射实现对火星的“绕、着、巡”，即火星环绕、火星着陆、火面巡视。天问一号探测器总重约5吨，由环绕器和着陆巡视器组成，着陆巡视器主要包括进入舱和火星车。目前，环绕器已完成第三次在轨自检，各系统工作正常。

探月逐火共奋进，追梦求真向天行。行星探测“天问工程”是月球探测“嫦娥工程”的再发展，是中国人探索宇宙星辰征程的再延伸。中国深空探测事业一步一个脚印，一棒接力一棒，继承与创新并举，稳妥与挑战兼具。现在，探月工程“绕、落、回”三步走发展规划圆满收官，天问一号正在抵近火星，带着中国人民的期愿飞向这颗神秘的红色星球。

天问一号飞運騎遊達达3亿 …….As of the early morning Monday of 14th December, 2020, CNSA – China National Space Administration- ESA – European Space agency Belt and road initiative mars mission…first Mars exploration mission, Tianwen-1 …….Tianwen-1 probe is more than 100 million kilometers away from the earth] It is learned from the National Space Administration that as of 21:00 Hong Kong – Beijing Time on December 14, the Tianwen-1 probe has been in orbit for 144 days, with a flight mileage of approximately 360 million kilometers, and is far from the earth. Over 100 million kilometers, about 12 million kilometers away from Mars, the flight is in good condition. Affected by the laws of movement of celestial bodies, the distance between Mars and the Earth varies periodically from 50 million kilometers to more than 400 million kilometers. When the Tianwen-1 rover arrived near Mars, it was about 190 million kilometers away from Earth. Since the launch of Tianwen 1 on July 23, it has successfully completed a group photo of the earth and the moon, “Selfie” of the probe, three midway corrections, a deep-space manoeuvre, and payload self-check. In the follow-up, several orbit corrections will be carried out. It is expected that after approaching Mars in mid-February next year, “brake” braking will be implemented to enter the ring fire orbit in preparation for Mars landing. (杨璐戚铁磊) #Tianwen 1 probe is more than 100 million kilometers away from the earth 我们的空间…… In the follow-up, Tianwen-1 will conduct several orbit corrections. It is expected to “brake” after approaching Mars in February next year and implement braking into the ring fire orbit.

The hometown is far away and the goal is getting closer. 100 million kilometers is equivalent to 2,499 the length of the earth’s equator. Now, Tianwen-1 is flying to Mars at a ground speed of 17.4 kilometers per second…….

 Previously………天问一号飞運騎遊達达3亿 …….As of the previously morning Tuesday of November 17th, 2020, CNSA – China National Space Administration- ESA – European Space agency Belt and road initiative mars mission…first Mars exploration mission, Tianwen-1, has been in orbit for 116 days, with a flight mileage of more than 300 million kilometers. The earth is approximately 63.8 million kilometers. The detector’s attitude is stable, the energy is balanced, some sub-systems have completed self-checking, and each system is working normally.

During its orbital flight, Tianwen-1 has completed three midway corrections and one deep-space manoeuvre and other flight control tasks. In early November, the landing patrol vehicle entry module and multiple sub-systems of the Mars rover completed the first on-orbit self-check, and the results were normal.

Tianwen-1 is scheduled to reach Mars in February 2021 and carry out Mars capture. In May 2021, it will choose an opportunity to de-orbit, and the landing patrol will be separated from the orbiter, soft landing on the surface of Mars, the rover will leave the landing platform, and the inspection will be carried out…. For the Martian exploration..

Previously On the 9th October 2020 Friday 2300 hours Beijing time CNSA – China National Space Administration that under the control of the flight control team of China’s first Mars exploration mission, the main engine of the Tianwen-1 probe was ignited. In more than 480 seconds, the deep space manoeuvre was successfully completed. The orbital manoeuvre was carried out in deep space approximately 29.4 million kilometers from the earth. The orbit design of Tianwen-1 comprehensively considered various constraints from launch to Mars capture and made the propellant consumption as small as possible, and adopted the strategy of a deep space manoeuvre during the transfer process. The probe will rendezvous with Mars about 4 months after its current orbit, during which two or three midway corrections will be implemented……

Previous the last course correction … during On October 1st 2020, as China- People’s Republic of China also throughout the Chinese also the Asian Communities celebrates the National Day and Mid-Autumn Festival; CNSA China National Space Administration released China’s first Mars exploration mission Tianwen-1 exploration….. The image of the CNSA Belt and Road Initiative European Space Agency collaboration Martian Probe flying, the five-star red flag on the picture is dazzling, showing a bright Chinese red. This is the first deep space self-portrait of our country 天问一号 Martian probe. In the vast universe, the silver landing patrol device and the golden orbiter are shining brightly. Tianwen No.1 uses this to report safety to China and express birthday wishes.

As we all know, when taking selfies on the ground, you can use auxiliary tools such as selfie sticks to shoot after choosing the angle, light and shadow, but the selfie of “Tianwen No. 1” is not that simple. Due to its large size, if the selfie stick strategy is adopted, “Tianwen No.1” needs to use a 15-meter-long selfie stick to achieve a full-view selfie, which not only consumes resources, but is also prone to safety risks. For this reason, the Mars Orbiter Engineering Survey Sub-system Team of the Eighth Academy of Sciences proposed a “separated monitoring plan”, which is to “throw out” a light camera under suitable lighting conditions to take pictures of “Tianwen No. 1” and transmit the images in real time. Go back to the “Tianwen No. 1” probe.

Have you seen a one-time dual-head super wifi camera?………In order to successfully implement the separate monitoring program, the Eighth Academy Mars Orbiter Engineering Measurement Sub-system team needs a little guy who can “divide, shoot clearly, pass back, and hold on”: use a small, small, low-impact unlocking separation device The camera can be “divided out”; the use of colour imaging, the configuration of 800×600, 1600X1200 two-level resolution camera allows the image to be “clearly captured”; the use of super Wi-Fi communication that can achieve 400 meters of wireless communication allows data “Passed back”; the use of disposable batteries that can provide power for longer than 1 hour allows the camera to “hold on”, allowing the ground to see the full picture of the “Tianwen No. 1” rushing to the fire.

Considering that the camera may turn over as it gradually moves away from the detector, the development team designed the camera as a dual-headed front and back to ensure that the camera can capture as many detector images as possible during the turning process. After four years of research and development, this little guy weighing about 950g successfully carried the “Tianwen-1” Mars probe into space, and successfully separated the head weighing about 680g, and obtained a clear image. Successfully completed the overall visual monitoring task of “Tianwen No. 1”

The name “Tianwen”: 天問 ….. Comes from the long poem of the same name written by Qu Yuan (about 340–278 BC), one of the greatest poets of Ancient China. It is a poem of a series of questions starting with how the universe was created.
