China’s Zhurong rover reveals how weather and ancient water altered rocks on Mars

China’s first Mars rover reveals how weather and ancient water changed the surface of the largest impact basin on Mars.

China’s Zhurong rover landed in the Utopia Planitia, a 2,000-miles-wide (3,300 kilometers) basin in the Northern Hemisphere of Mars, in May 2021. Since then, the rover has been studying local geology, chemical composition of rocks, and local weather conditions using its six scientific instruments.
