Zhurong found a group of stones ! It traveled a total of 1,921 meters, but Tianwen 2 did not go to

"Zhurong" has not appeared for a long time, and at this time, Huaguo's deep space exploration laboratory released the latest research results, everyone knows that China's success this time is definitely worth the money.

In addition, this series of discoveries has also made everyone know more about Mars, which will also be of great help to us to collect samples on the moon in the future.

In addition, in the near future, we will also travel to Mars, build a new base, and then colonize, which is also a major exploration. Let's take a look.

Zhurong has made a new discovery: a rock community.

"Zhurong" is the first Chinese probe to land on Mars, it is 1.85 meters tall and has a total mass of 240 kg.

But it turned out that it had already exceeded its intended service life and also broke the Chinese "footprint" on Mars, which reached 1921 m.

It turns out that the Chinese have "Martian footprints" on the ground more than 1,000 meters away, so what is the current situation of Zhurong and what are the benefits for our country? Next, I would like to talk about the latest research results.

The first probe and the Zhurong probe will discover for the first time on Mars geochemical and geochemical processes caused by wind, water and other factors"Utopia"It was a sea of sea"scientific hypotheses to lay the foundation.

Second, the rover discovered a regolith more than 10 meters deep on the Moon, which may be related to multiple water movements over a period of 3.5-3.2 billion years.

Thirdly, for the first time, geological phenomena such as crusting, rupture, agglomeration, polygonal ridges and banded water marks were found on the surface of the sand dunes near the landing site of Zhurong.

In addition, we have found a range of geological evidence in the region that showed the formation of oceans in the region, as well as how the climatic conditions in the region evolved along the planet's axis of rotation and the glacial age.

Therefore, even if it is the first rover to land on Mars, it has brought back a lot of research on Mars for Huaxia, which is also the latest research result on the Zhurong spacecraft.

Based on the 3D images collected by the Zhurong probe on the patrol route, this project used the self-developed 3D imaging technology to identify the rocks within 10 m of 113 observation points in the Martian orbit, and found 5983 rocks of more than 10 cm, which laid the foundation for revealing the geological evolution process of Mars.

Based on the fine structure of the strata of the Zhurong probe, we speculate that most of the rocks on the surface of the Zhurong moon come from the frequent asteroid collisions in the Amazon system, and the rocks on the secondary surface are stripped out of the earth's crust by a large number of rocks, and then after long-term weathering, the rock is finally broken, buried and transported.

Below "Zhurong", there is a new discovery. This is another major research achievement of China in Mars exploration.

However, this should not be the ultimate goal of "Zhurong", perhaps there will be more information about "Zhurong" in China, and they will continue to collect more information about "Zhurong".

It's a pity that the current Zhurong spacecraft is in a state of "dormant and not waking up".

Yes, although the "Zhurong" probe has achieved the exploration of Mars, it has fallen into "hibernation" and has not woken up until now, which also means that its journey has reached 1921 meters, perhaps this is the "end of its life".

As for the reason why it has not been able to wake up for a long time, it is due to the "Martian dust" blocking its solar cells, causing it to be unable to generate electricity.

In order for Zhurong to wake up, it must generate electricity, and after generating electricity, two conditions must be met:

First, the temperature in the cabin should be above -15 degrees.

Second, solar cells must be able to provide a minimum power requirement of 140 watts a day.

If both are reached, it will be launched.

Because of this, "Zhurong" is still sleeping, that is, its conditions are not met, Zhang Rongqiao, the chief designer of the previous Chinese planetary exploration project, once said that when the number of sandstorms exceeds the original design by 20%, then its production capacity is not enough to meet the demand, and when the number of sandstorms exceeds 30%, it can only generate enough electricity when the sun is at its strongest.

If dust accumulates more than 40% of what it can carry, then it will no longer be able to wake it up. To be honest, we were just trying it out, so we had expected that the rover hadn't woken up yet.

Therefore, they only need to complete their mission, and no one expected that Huaguo would be able to succeed at one time.

The only pity for many people is that the probe named "Zhurong" did not wake up and did not make any more contributions. However, with the launch of Tianwen-1, our Tianwen-2 did not go to Mars, but chose Tianwen-3.

If Tianwen-2 can't go to Mars, it can only go to Tianwen-3.

Yes, many people think that Tianwen-1 and Tianwen-2 are the most important links, but they don't do that. To ** go?

Our Tianwen-2 program is to complete a collection of asteroids in 2025, while tracking and sampling 2016HO3, which is an asteroid orbiting the Sun, will orbit us for the next 100 years.

Our country has carried out a study on the morphology, surface material composition and internal structure of 2016Ho3, and it is also the first country in China to carry out such a study.

More critically, this is a test of sample collection, and it is also a test of the samples collected by Tianwen-3 on Mars.

Therefore, although Tianwen-2 is not going to Mars, it is inextricably linked to the Mars program, and with perfect technology, we can complete a sample.

In addition, as you can see, our country's current development of Mars only relies on Zhurong, followed by sampling, which also shows our strong confidence in Mars. So, I'd love to implement it as soon as possible.

That's why Tianwen-2 won't fly to Mars, but it's very important. Tianwen-3 is also crucial, as long as we have more understanding of Mars, it will be of great help to us to establish bases and immigration projects on Mars in the future.

He also hopes that from these materials, he can discover more key technologies to prepare for the future Tianwen-3.
