I wonder what the rover's purpose is (any instruments, or just a camera to watch the ascent from a safe distance), like the deployables on the Mars rover?
EDIT: that was fast, away it goes! |

Full summary of the surface operations, including more than 10 minutes of video, are at CNSA's website - but I have trouble downloading them.
I've found more concise versions (surface sampling, sub-surface drilling and ascent stage liftoff), you may found them on Twitter or on NSF forums (too big to attach here). Sampling 1 Sampling 2 Drilling 1 Drilling 2 Ascent stage liftoff 1 Ascent stage liftoff 2

More photos from CNSA:
First two are descent camera photos during the descent phase The third one is from the descent camera just after touchdown The fourth one is from the panoramic camera's north side view with Chaffee crater in the background (edit: better resolution image now up; full version is here)
