I wish the Chinese rover the same solar panel cleaning events and longevity as Spirit and Opportunity. Hopefully there will be the same openness with respect to image release.

I wish the same, but the rover is substantially further north (~25 degrees). I fear it may have more trouble surviving the winter. cos(2 * 10 degrees) = 0.940 cos(2 * 25 degrees) = 0.643 |
