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 OneAs of September 15, 2022, the Tianwen-1 orbiter has been in orbit for more than 780 days, and the rover has travelled a total of 1,921 meters, completed the established scientific exploration tasks, and obtained 1,480 GB of original scientific exploration data. The scientific research team has obtained rich scientific results through the research on the first-hand scientific data obtained independently by my country. Through a comprehensive study of typical landforms such as concave cones, barrier craters, and trenches distributed in the landing area, the important connection between the formation of the above-mentioned landforms and water activities has been revealed.

朱融号  Zhurong Mars Rover The photos taken by the Mars rover before hibernation for one month (April 22), maybe this is the posthumous work…..The mosaic pictures of other scenes taken by Zhurong are all 50% of the original picture, and they were taken on January 29, March 3, March 14 and April 12, 2022.

It is worth mentioning that Figure 4 is the last batch of pictures from the navigation terrain camera of the Zhurong Mars rover currently released, and it may also be the last batch of photos from the Zhurong rover that we can see in the days to come Original..

Four images of the surface of Mars acquired by the Tianwen-1 orbiter’s medium-resolution camera between January and February 2022. Do these four pictures look familiar to you? A little hint: the main scenery in the four photos are Peacock Mountain (Pavonis Mons), Arsia Mountain (Arsia Mons), Matt crater (Marth crater) on the Arabian Highlands (Arabia Terra) and Mount Elysium ( Elysium Mons).

That’s right, this is the documentary “Hello! Original images of the four photos of Mars in the opening credits of each episode of Mars. With the advancement of the Mars global image mapping work in 2022, the medium-resolution camera imaging area gradually moves southward to the middle and low latitudes. We have seen more and more shocking Mars photos, and we will slowly share them with you.

The Tianwen-1 medium-resolution camera took the wind-eroded landform on the surface of Mars at 65.4° east longitude and 5.1° north latitude on February 17, 2022 (40% original resolution). Each impact crater bears traces of wind erosion, as if meteors flew over the surface of Mars. The reason for this landform is the accumulation of wind and sand formed under the action of the prevailing wind direction.

#CNSA #ChinaNationalSpaceAdministration #國家航天局 |#BeltAndRoadinitiative #May2022 | #火星 # 天問 #天问一号#TianwenOne #MarsMission #Marslander #MarsRover probe  #祝融号 #ZhuRong The first anniversary of Tianwen-1 landing on Mars…..

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. Tianwen-1″ returned high-resolution images of the Mars inspection area The “Zhurong” rover is preparing for winter, and the orbiter continues to carry out orbital exploration…..

As of May 5, 2022, the “Tianwen-1” orbiter has been in orbit for 651 days and is 240 million kilometers away from the earth. The “Zhurong” rover has worked on the surface of Mars for 347 Martian days, with a cumulative travel of 1921 meters, the two devices have accumulated about 940GB of original scientific data, and the operation is normal.

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. 

Figure 1. “Seasonal slope pattern” of the crater wall of the Triolet crater on Mars, captured by a high-resolution camera 
Fig. 2 Local landform of Martian Sailor Valley captured by medium-resolution camera

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.
