A team of scientists from China’s Guangzhou University & US’s Penn State analysed data from China’s Zhurong Mars rover, which landed in the Utopia Planitia region of Mars in 2021.
ISRO chief S. Somanath details the agency’s planned missions, declines to comment on Chandrayaan-3, whose lander and rover were put to sleep when first lunar night set in.

Despite many failures, missions to Mars continue because there is immense knowledge to be gleaned from the planet about our own existence and evolution.
