"The 1.85-meter-tall, 240-kilogram Zhurong has chipped away at Martian land for more than 224 days far outlasting its three-month future. The wanderer had voyaged in excess of 1,400 meters," CNSA said in an assertion. China is just the second nation later the US to have effectively led a Martian arrival.

The Chinese wanderer is working in an effect pit named Utopia Planitia — chose primarily on the grounds that it is level and a generally protected spot to land. Presently heading towards an area may whenever have been the shore of an antiquated sea, where scientists will look for pieces of information about the development of Mars.

The mission was one of three to show up on Mars in 2021 — the others were Nasa's Perseverance wanderer and an orbiter conveyed by the United Arab Emirates.

With China effectively wandering on Mars, Beijing has plans to send off an example return mission to the space rock Kamo'oalewa in 2024, and to Mars before 2030. In the mean time, it additionally has its sights set on Jupiter, as well.
