"It feels weird. Wherever I went, I was the first. Stepping out of the rover, the first guy to set foot in the field, the first to drive a long-distance car on Mars. The first person to spend more than 31 solar days on Mars. The first to plant crops on Mars. Everything is first, first, first!"
You must remember the story of The Martian! Astronauts who planted potatoes on Mars didn't know how many fans were touched at the time! The ravines on Mars in the movie also evoke everyone's infinite yearning for extraterrestrial planets.
Recently, a message released by the Lunar Exploration and Aerospace Engineering Center of the National Defense Science and Industry Administration has brought everyone one step closer to the "Mars Dream"! The design and composition of China's first Mars rover and rover has been announced, and the global solicitation of names and graphic logos of China's Mars exploration projects has also been launched!
In addition, for a preview, this much-anticipated Mars rover will depart in 2020 and fly to Mars!
Let's take a look at what this rover looks like! Ta is equipped with 4 "big wings" - solar panels. According to Sun Zezhou, chief designer of the Mars rover of China's first Mars exploration mission, like China's first lunar rover "Jade Rabbit", the rover's energy acquisition also relies on solar energy.
However, due to the small light intensity of Mars, the Martian atmosphere has a reducing effect on sunlight, and the energy supply of the rover is more difficult than that of the lunar rover, and the rover has designed two more "wings" than the "Jade Rabbit".
Look, isn't it handsome?
In 2013, China's first lunar rover " Yutu " was also sent to the moon after a global name call! Let's review the cute sample paper of the "Jade Rabbit"
wow! It's a bit of a match! I don't know if the nameless Martian Jun and the "Jade Rabbit" will become the strongest cosmic CP? Just by looking at the appearance, I think the boyfriend of this Mars rover is max!
However, careful netizens pointed out: "Jade Rabbit" is obviously a boy paper! Is it really good to force the bending of the bunny?
But some netizens said so, as if it makes a lot of sense!
In fact, no matter what the truth is, this pair of cp everyone is standing!
Come and see the name everyone gave the rover!
Wow, full of mythical winds! Xiaobian wants to praise everyone's erudition!
In addition to the happy naming link, there are also netizens who are concerned about the life of the Mars rover on Mars, how will they spend a lonely day and night?
Experts tell us that the design life of the rover is 3 Mars months, and the design weight is about 200 kg. In order to adapt to the special environment of Mars, the rover will be made of composite memory fibers, aluminum-based silicon carbide, honeycomb sandwiches and other materials. The probe will carry 13 scientific payloads, including cameras for global remote sensing of Mars and radar for detecting the shallow structure of mars underground, to detect the morphology, soil, environment, atmosphere, water ice distribution, physics and internal structure of Mars.
Zhang Rongqiao, chief designer of China's first Mars exploration mission project, said that Mars is up to 400 million kilometers away from the earth, and In 2020, China's first Mars exploration will achieve the three goals of "orbiting, landing and inspecting", which is the first time that other countries have implemented Mars exploration like never before, and the challenges are unprecedented.
If you want to unveil the mystery of Mars, you have to rely on our handsome Mars rover!
Let's make a wish together, may the Mars rover be able to successfully complete the task, and exert the boyfriend's power to MAX!
