The China national space administration (CNSA) released new pictures with images of the Zhurong rover's inspection area on #Mars taken by the orbiter and the rover of the country's Tianwen-1 Mars mission. #ChinaTech
Tianwen1 Zhurong Mars Rover selfies BEFORE (5/19/2021) and AFTER (1/22/2022). The panels started to collect dusts, but still good enough for power demands. When there’s too much dusts, a built-in vibration mechanism will help clean the rover. Source: https://share.api.weibo.cn/share/291969487,4750463449172298.html?weibo_id=4750463449172298

Phobos, the larger of the two natural satellites of Mars, was observed by the Tianwen-1 orbiter with its high resolution camera. The image was released by the China National Space Administration (CNSA) to mark two years since the Tianwen-1 was launched. Tianwen-1 (天问一号) is China’s first Mars exploration mission with an orbiter, a lander and a rover named Zhurong (祝融).
