Congratulations to CNSAs#Tianwen1team for the successful landing of Chinas first Mars exploration rover,#Zhurong!
40% off TNW Conference!
The surrounding area is largely featureless, covered mostly in volcanic material.
Zhurong is not the first rover to explore this region.
The Viking 2 lander lacked the ability to investigate any further than its initial landing site.
But the Zhurong rover should be well equipped to roam farther afield during its mission.
