also keep in mind that Zhurong 's mission duration is 4 month , anything afterwards is just a bonus.

Zhurong, my opinion, is just a *test drive* for us...
What I am looking forward to is (the next Mars-Earth alignment opportunity to open up), by which time, and if things go as smoothly for us as it does now, I do envision a Mars orbiter, a Mars rover, a Mars drone, and a Mars submersible all rolled into one.
I seen tests of such gadgetries being worked on in China on youtube and, given the truth to the saying *(where there's smoke, there's fire)*, and given that the gravity of Mars is so low it shouldn't take much effort to generate lift, this *THING* whatever it is can hop in and out of the Martian orbit to avoid the dust devils there, and given the Bob Lazar hanger S-4 sciences that the Chinese may be fiddling with now days, one never know what they are capable of...
One speculation I have however is this: if it weren't for the conspiracy to keep us out of space at the time, my bet is that our first Mars orbiter, Firefly I, 2021, would definitely made it to the Martian orbit but, conspiracies are conspiracies and conspiracies are there to perform a task and that task is to make sure we don't make it.
India of course flew there on their own hence nothing to keep them from getting there.
.
No matter how far Zhurong can go, it has beaten all the other countries' fake Mars explorations and landings including the 9 landings faked by NASA Hollywood.
@@edisonone "Mars submersible" ? Wuh. There's no ocean on Mars.
.
Seriously, given how [they, whoever they are] had conspired or gang up on Huawei Tiensent, Tic Tok and all, and…
How they are attempting to close the chip gap and many many other attempts to stop us Zhurong’ese, good old Godesst Zhurong should thank her lucky star she got there all in one piece this time around.
I mean remember Zhurong’s bigger sister’s attempts to piggyback herself there on a Russian booster which just so blew itself up? Well, I don’t bug that. I just don’t buy that at all!
I have to say here that, just like America, the Russians too has to be quite pissed we are firefly-flying ourselves there on one of their boosters and they make sure that that doesn’t happen.
I mean Russian bears are human too you know.

Oceans:
Lunnar’naughts John Glen and Buzz claims that they heard echos of a bell ringing from the moon when they jettisoned something onto the moon raising speculation that the moon is hollow. Ridiculous right?
Well, in science, we open our minds and speculations to all possibilities and the speculation that water (H20) could well be a very building block of all things in the universe and that it might even be in great abundances in the universe just as black holes and dark matters are.
Let’s just say who knows if under the depths of the dry and barren Martian landscape that if we crack open a piece of Marian topside Ice sheet that there might not be pools of liquified substance in it in the volume greater than Lake Michigan and that T-Rex and Triceratops if a kind swims in it at great ease just like Nessie does in the Loch in Scotland?
Don’t think so?
Who knows! We might one day find clusters and clusters of flying dragons just like the one depicted in that movie existing - not in any planet - but in deep space itself living off of other species like themselves…
Never say never! Especially oceans in our universe cus we may one day just run into a mass of H20’s the size of our solar system be swallowed by it like a black hole..,

Great summary of Zhurong's status on Mars. By all measures, Zhurong has been a termendioius success. Just surviving the first full sol after landing was a major milestone, of which only two nations have achieved. Definitely not a failure, but any measure.
In the coming month it's possible that one of the Mars orbiters is able to capture an image of Zhurong to provide some insight into the amount of dust that has accumulated over Mars winter.
The rover originally was designed & meant to work on the Mars for 90 days only. That 90 days had already achieved! Many are expecting & hoping that the rover should carry on working after its mission is completed. since examples from other's experiences and the jade rabbit on moon which are well over their working life that's why many are having high hope and high expectation from it. Like many western media keeps on titling the Chinese's Mars rover is failed cause not waking up!?? What is the big fuss about i?! Its mission had already completed for the 90 days of design! if it can restarting itself then it'll get into a bonus stage! Real misled by those media!
unbiased and clear. great reporting. keep us posted.
Yep. Could well be just not ready to wake up yet. Fingers crossed because it's another step forward if it does.
Great video! Well-done and informative. Learned a lot, thank you!
Thanks for all the positive information glad to be getting updates from you and not the MSM!
Again, great reporting that is clear, objective, and informative. Thank you!
Thank you for the report and analysis.
Thanks for the update. Fingers crossed she comes back online, but it's still a great achievement either way. Mars eats landers for lunch -- and nailing it on the first go was nothing short of spectacular.
Danke für dieses Update!
Can't wait to see what's next
Keep up the good work,thanks.
either way, it's an amazing success for china
Great information and analysis! Keep up the good work!
Great reporting. I enjoy your channel. Please keep it up.
Another interesting report with lots of analysis and background info ... Impressive! Thank you.
Thx for the update, still keep fingers crossed and hope for the best
Thank you for the informative update🙏🙂🙏
Excellent summary!
Thanks Gregory 🙏🏻
Excellent updates. Thanks.
Informative. Thanks for sharing your views.
Crossing my fingers for that Sleeping Beauty to wake up!
Thanks for your expert knowledge & opinion.
Strange, I haven't been getting your video notifications, is UA-cam up to shenanigans again
Excellent and fair explanation 👍👍👍👍
Thanks Jean! Balanced reporting we need badly given the one sided western or western funded media
Yes I agree. I'm concerned for all the Censored Brainwashed Chinese population too.
@@patricksmith1626 bullshit
Zhurong is completely Dead in January 20, 2023
while Curiosity (2012) and Perseverance (2021) are still active in the Red Planet 😊
Curiosity and Perseverance are nuclear powered rovers, while Zhurong is solar powered
Wow, did not know how advanced Chinese are in Mars exploration. Thanks for the video and great summary.
An acceptable logical and scientific explanation. 👍
Good commentary
I'm forever impressed with China's progress in the past 40 years. This rover is just another example of what the Chinese people are capable of if they are left alone to go about their business.
Russian, Chinese and Americans are ALL extremely capable. I think ONLY the Russians have landed on Venus.
Cheers to you
Zhurong never fails, merely resting..you'll see.
Thank you for the clear information! I love watching all of the Mars rovers research, including Zhurong. After a while, I noticed there hasn’t been anything new from him, then saw that he hasn’t woken up, since last month. I hope he wakes up soon!
Minor note, I didn’t realize that Zhurong and Perseverance were that close near each other!
Nice!
Zhurong加油！
9 months. On the dot. When is the next window open? Can't wait.
If Zhurong returned to the mother ship to stay under it. The solar panel must be spherical so that the sand can cover it. A small improvement
So what if it is. It was Chinas first attempt and has achieved more than they bargained for. Future missions will be more reliable now they have experience.
i wonder if the battery would survive the harsh condition for that long.
why dont they fold the solar panels away during winter? that way dust would not gather on them? just worried they would not be able to redeploy?
Hmm that’s a fair point, I don’t know if there are any such protective measures for the solar panels during hibernation. It’s possible that the rover still needs to harvest some base level of energy even during hibernation ? 🤔
How about windshield wipers?
A lot of space crafts fail because they can't unfold their solar panels. It's a major possible point of failure. Also trying to unfold panels requires power, which you can only get more after unfolded, it simply isn't logical.
zhurong is designed for 1 year mission iirc? anything beyond that is an icing to the cake
design for 90 days.
hope next rover could equip nuclear power
Indeed!
Has anyone brought Mars sample yet?
Not yet! That “first” is still up for grabs
Hey, the Nasa's rover on Mars moves around ten years. Occationaly technician clean the dust solar cell (LOL) They also do not need dish antenna to communicate with earth (LOL)
Aliens are messing with it.
The rover already exceed it life expectancy and lasted longer than predict. Tge mission was fully succeeded on Mars.
With so much success it is inevitable to have a failure.😢😅
People are not going to believe me but they were attacked by Megatron…..
Well zhurong. .maybe so wrong to go there,,,got help!dial perseverance .
Next time, China needs to use nuclear energy to power it's rover. This way it can operate year round and not have to go through hibernation.
Time for another Chinese Martian mission even if Zhurong survives the harsh Martian winter.
Why are all negative comments routinely deleted z/
" What's your point "
I found people & animals on
Mars 2004,I designed Mars rovers 1987.see pics Jerry Lehane Mars.
To begin with the mission objectives were impressive, they achieved it nicely, and any extra life span is a bonus
Go CHINA 🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳
I only care about this if they let the rest of the world know what,if anything,they discover on that long dead rock!
Learn Chinese.. all info is being published.
@@hclau218 that is the problem. For English speakers, Chinese is among the hardest language to learn. Reading is even worse, and the way computer input is done is insane. It's like learning a second language just to be able to get words into the computer.
@@danielch6662 Not a problem. Just laziness mixed in with a bit of racism and a false sense "superiority"
😂 NASA’s rovers last like 10+ years
I can imagine great trouble if China thinks yhey can send something to Mars ???
No trouble, the mission to be able to land a rover in Mars is already far beyond the narrow-minded US or the West comprehension.
So say someone from a country that started and was involved in 90 wars, killing millions in the past 40 years alone.
If you don't like science, don't watch this. The honesty is going to screw you up.
Zhurong found ruins of an alien civilisation on Mars.
😂
No Toe, it was found.
If you contact me for interview I will reveal how Zhurong solved a 100 year puzzle,even the China Space program is unaware of,but would be happy to know.
"Made in China".
who cares
Nasa's fake roverhas even running many years with occasionally sand is cleaned by technician before new filming. Lol
Well it was made in china so that should tell ya it wasn’t gonna last long
Why do morons keep popping up? Oh, I know - made in America.
it already done his mission
i know always have people racist china common
European Mars landing mission failed twice and has not yet succeeded. China's Mars mission succeeded in orbiting, landing, deploying rover all in a single shot.
@@lsynder USA is way ahead in the lead. Go murica. Down with china.
typical chinese stuff, stops working after 30 days with no warranty honored
Zhurong had worked well beyond its designed life span of 3-4 months. China's Moon rover Yutu-2 was also designed to work for 3 months but it is still working after 4 years.
Did you just imply you/ your local market can't afford more expensive and reliable chinese stuffs out there?
You pay cheap you get cheap. You must be too cheap to get the good stuff.
China technology is better then Americans but Chinese people are humble and keep head down and keep working for humans.
Nasa's fake Mars mission can last a few years with plenty of CGI without any problem. LOL.
Keep it scientific please....
npc comment
@@EricChien95 Scientifically, Nasa's Mars mission is fake. Do you know how they claimed to land on Mars first time? It was like a cartoon idea. Bouncing with balloons an drilled down the hills.
@@wysochunky2110 Nasa is known of lying. The apollo moon landing was one of the biggest lie in human history. You can watch this 3.5 hours documentary with all the evidences in details. ua-cam.com/video/KpuKu3F0BvY/v-deo.html
@@sipingal literally everything in that old ass “documentary” that says it’s fake has been disproven. Keep up with the times we were building icbms 15 years beforehand. Also shaming history because you don’t like it doesn’t mean it didn’t happen🙂
❤❤thanks Jean..㊗️🧧😘
are freemasonic fairytales in trouble ?
Tofu dreg spacecraft
You have a tofu brain.
Don’t be too jealous of the Chinese success in space exploration.
Just envy
@@markc6140 Wow, what a comeback. Why would I be jealous? Do you even understand what that word means?
@@andrewchew29 Yes, especially jealous of your countries low quality manufacturing that falls apart from a fart
