A very interesting paper has just been released in the 'accepted' paper category by the Journal of Deep Space Exploration:
http://jdse.bit.edu.cn/sktcxb/en/article/d...020.20190708001 "Analysis and selection of landing areas for China 2020 Mars Mission" It's in Chinese, but an English version will probably appear soon in another journal - that's common practice. The abstract is in English as well as Chinese. The illustrations show the sites. 2 are in Chryse, 5 are in the Isidis region and one is in the highlands about 1000 km west of InSight. One site is in Jezero crater, but the three favoured sites (e, f and g) are in Isidis, I will make some illustrations of the sites soon, but for a start here is the Isidis set: (Gale crater is at bottom right) Phil -------------------- ... because the Solar System ain't gonna map itself.
