天问一号飞運騎遊達达3亿 …….As of 11th  June 2021Friday  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.   Also to of the ultimate Mars Selfie of itself also it’s Mars Landing platform in releasing a high definition patches of travelling least six meters of it landing platform 天问一号-1 landing on Mars first batch of scientific images revealingly…  


That Mars  on Hong Kong SAR- Beijing  Earth Friday  time On June 11th  2021 , at the unveiling ceremony of the first batch of scientific image maps of the Tianwen-1 rover landing on Mars in Beijing, the panoramic view of the landing site, the topography of Mars, the “Chinese imprint” and the image taken by the “Zhurong” rover were announced. “Photographs with the tour” and other image maps. The release of the first batch of scientific image maps marked the complete success of my country’s first Mars exploration mission.


The panoramic view of the landing site is a 360-degree ring shot taken by the navigation terrain camera on the rover’s mast before the rover has left the landing platform, after correction and mosaic stitching. The image shows that the terrain near the landing site is flat, the Martian horizon can be seen in the distance, and the abundance and size of the rocks are consistent with expectations, indicating that the autonomous selection of the landing site and the implementation of hovering obstacle avoidance are effective.


The Mars topography map  is the first topography and geomorphology image map taken by the navigation terrain camera after the rover reaches the surface of Mars. The image shows that the nearby surface is relatively flat, with stones of different sizes distributed, with smooth edges, lighter colours, and semi-buried. There is an annular pit at the far end, and the edges of the annular pit are distributed with darker, angular stones. , And a few sand dunes farther away.
The “Chinese Imprint” map is an image of the landing platform taken when the Mars rover travels to about 6 meters southeast of the landing platform 60° southeast. The image shows that the landing platform is shining, the national flag is bright red and square, and the surface is rich in details.


The picture of the “touring group photo” shows the rover traveling about 10 meters south of the landing platform, releasing the separate camera installed at the bottom of the vehicle, and then retreating to the vicinity of the landing platform. The separate camera took pictures of the movement of the rover and the photo of the rover and the landing platform. The image is transmitted to the rover through wireless signals, and then relayed back to the ground by the rover through the orbiter

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 the afternoon Chinese Lunar New Year festival week holidays ending …. 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.

Mars moored orbit on the day. The probe will run on the berth orbit for about three months, and all seven orbiter loads will be turned on and scientific exploration will begin. At the same time, the medium-resolution cameras, high-resolution cameras, and spectrometers in the payload will conduct detailed investigations of the topography, landforms, sand and dust weather in the pre-selected landing area, and prepare for landing on Mars.

Since its successful launch on July 23, 2020, the Tianwen-1 probe has been in orbit for 215 days and is currently 212 million kilometers away from the earth. On February 10, 2021, the probe entered the ring fire orbit, implemented the far-fire point orbit plane maneuver on February 15, and implemented the second near-fire brake on February 20. The current equipment is in normal state and various flight controls Work is proceedingly normally.
