China became only the second country to operate a rover on Mars last month when the six-wheeled Zhurong robot rolled down the ramp onto the red planet.

In addition to the remote snapshot, the China National Space Administration (CNSA) released a few black and white images at a lower resolution from the navigation cameras, a picture of the lander taken by Zhurong, and a panorama of the Utopia Planitia landing site.

So far, the robot has covered about 22 meters on Mars, and all its systems are working as intended. .

While NASA is not directly working with the CNSA on the Zhurong mission, it did take time to take some images of the robot’s landing zone with the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO).
