GO ZHURONG!!!!! -------------------- A few will take this knowledge and use this power of a dream realized as a force for change, an impetus for further discovery to make less ancient dreams real.

The coordinates have been moved a bit, to 25.1 N, 109.9 E. That moves it out of the CTX image volcanopele posted and puts it about here:
The hills seen in the first orbital image are at lower right. Phil -------------------- ... because the Solar System ain't gonna map itself.

The coordinates have been moved a bit, to 25.1 N, 109.9 E. That moves it out of the CTX image volcanopele posted and puts it about here: I found the coordinates Phil mentions on this news site https://m.chinanews.com/wap/detail/zw/gn/20...5/9477804.shtml Contrast with this GE Mars snapshot of the site area to which I added the Tianwen-1/Zhurong location and uncertainty [+/- 0.05deg] bounding box. Fernando PS: I intend to, in a future post, perhaps in the maps thread (hint, hint), cover the two CTX images I have added to GE's Global CTX overlay. PPS: There aren't any HiRISE images of the area but a HiWish has been registered. |
