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 The photos taken by the Mars rover before hibernation for one month (April 2022), maybe this is the posthumous work….

Currently as to date of the Zhurong Mars Rover is currently at sleep safe mode due to the Martian Sandstorms….. The location of Zhurong taken by the Tianwen-1 orbiter after it hibernated in Zhurong last year. The rut marks left by Zhurong after traveling 1921 meters are clearly visible….. The local dust on Mars captured by the Tianwen-1 orbiter is much layered. This photo was taken by the medium-resolution camera of the Tianwen-1 orbiter on January 6, 2022, and Zhurong went into a dormant state more than three months after this time point. 

Last year, he appeared in the documentary “Hello! The photo of Arsia Mons in the opening title of “Mars” was synthesized from multiple photos taken by the medium-resolution camera of the Tianwen-1 orbiter on February 7, 2022.

On the basis of the previously released version, a post- processing….

A photo of the northwest corner of the Tempe Terra in the northern hemisphere of Mars. The coordinates are about 82° west longitude and 45° north latitude. It was taken by the Tianwen-1 medium-resolution camera on February 14, 2022, at 50% of the original size.

The medium-resolution camera of Tianwen-1 were basically unprocessed. However, after trying to do post-production recently, it is still really fragrant, and I can get a lot of good pictures that feel completely different. For example, after processing the wind-eroded landform photos on the surface of Mars at 65.4° east longitude and 5.1° north latitude previously posted, Figure 1 is obtained . After comparing with the previous version (text of Weibo) (Figure 2), we can see that the overall effect is very high .

Orson Welles crater (Orson Welles) near the equator, located in the Western Hemisphere Coprates quadrangle (MC-18), on the north side of the east end of Sailors Valley. The researchers believe that the pit was covered by sediment long ago, and that the collapse of an underground aquifer created a complex chaotic topography in the pit, releasing flash floods that formed vast lakes in the pit. The northeast side of the crater was damaged by multiple current events, and the flood water overflowed the rim of the crater, forming the downstream Shalbatana Vallis (Shalbatana Vallis).
This is a key to the turbulent past of Mars…
This picture is made by mosaicing 4 of the 26 Orbiter Medium Resolution Camera (MoRIC) images obtained by searching for the Sharbatana Canyon as the area of ​​interest. Taken on February 22, 2022-detection cycle 914, using OpenCV, SKImage, Lr for processing. [CAS/GRAS, CNSA/PEC; export production:

Aram Chaos (left side) and Ares Canyon part (Ares Vallis, center right), in the Oxia Palus, MC-11, on the northeast side of Valles Mariners. The former is a circular chaotic terrain with a width of about 280 km, which is considered to be an impact crater highly eroded by water flow; the latter is an obvious overflow channel, which was landed by the Mars Pathfinder mission MESUR Pathfinder in 1997 The Sojourner rover landed here.
This picture is made by searching a medium-resolution camera (MoRIC) image in an area with (2.6N, 21.5W) as the center and a search radius of 160 km. It was taken on February 9, 2022- Detection period 872, processed by OpenCV, SKImage, Lr. [CAS/GRAS, CNSA/PEC; export production

Gale Crater (the largest one in the picture above) and its surroundings taken by the medium-resolution camera of the Tianwen-1 Mars orbiter on March 3, 2022. Gale Crater is the place where the Curiosity rover landed on August 6, 2012. It has been nearly ten years since Curiosity landed when this photo was taken, and the Curiosity rover is still working tirelessly in Gale Crater Exploring, climbing Aeolis Mons (also known as Mount Sharp) located in the center of the pit from the northwest.

Several unnamed impact craters and some wind-eroded landforms near 7°N, 138.7°W of Mars were taken by the medium-resolution camera of the Tianwen-1 Mars orbiter on March 11, 2022, at 50% of the original size. Original data source: China Planetary Exploration Engineering Ground Application System

The mid-section of the Valles Marineris at around 70°W, taken by the medium-resolution camera of the Tianwen-1 Mars orbiter on February 8, 2022, is 50% of the original size and processed with contrast enhancement.

The area in the picture is mainly composed of four canyons: the smaller one in the upper left is Ophir Chasma, the one in the middle of the picture to the south is Candor Chasma, and the larger one in the lower left. The area is Melas Chasma (Melas Chasma), and the bottom right stretches all the way to the southeast is Coprates Chasma (Coprates Chasma).
