The Dielectric Properties of Martian Regolith at the Tianwen‐1 Landing Site
Abstract Mars' surface is characterized by a weathered layer of regolith and exposed rock exposures that are the results of long‐term geological processes. The Mars Rover Penetrating Radar (RoPeR) on board the Zhurong rover of China's first Mars mission (Tianwen‐1) has been investigating the fine structure and dielectric properties of the martian ...

Abstract Aqueous activities on Mars have gradually declined since the Noachian (>3.7 Ga). Although water can be stored in the subsurface during the latest epochs, geomorphological evidence is still limited. In this study, we used in situ imaging and spectral data acquired by China's Zhurong rover, as well as high‐resolution remote‐sensing data, to ...

Landing Site Selection and Characterization of Tianwen‐1 (Zhurong Rover) on Mars
Abstract The Chinese Mars rover Zhurong onboard the Tianwen‐1 probe successfully landed on Mars in May 2021. Here, we report our efforts in selecting a landing site for Zhurong within a pre‐identified landing region in southern Utopia Planitia. Using the high‐resolution images collected by a camera onboard the Tianwen‐1 orbiter, the landing region was ...

Abstract Dating rocks with a 2σ precision of 200 Ma is required to understand the history of Martian habitability and volcanic activity since ~4000 Ma. In situ K‐Ar dating using a spot‐by‐spot laser ablation technique has been developed for isochron dating on Mars.
