Why tianwen-1 zhurong rover has no robotic arm? if there is a reason please tell me Chinakpradhan ( talk) 06:37, 23 May 2021 (UTC)
Many articles state that China is the second country to land a rover on Mars. However, the Soviet Union landed Mars 3 which included a rover. The landing was successful - even though the mission only lasted a couple of minutes. Why then isn't China the third country to successfully soft-land a rover?

The Mars 3 rover was never operational. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2603:7000:B500:115B:19A1:5B94:6D80:634E ( talk) 04:45, 11 June 2021 (UTC)
Mars-3 might deploy a rover, but it never established communication with the Earth, which makes rover mission a failure. However, Mars-3 was the first spacecraft to achieve soft landing. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 46.242.13.228 ( talk) 13:28, 15 January 2023 (UTC)
Just putting this out here, but recently they released new photos taken from a remote camera of the Zhurong rover. Including a pretty good selfie. I think that image is more suited for the infobox pic than an artists impression, as the recent NASA rovers both have real pictures. I'm pretty sure since my account is new, I lack such permissions to make an upload like that myself and I can't find it on wikimedia already. PikminFan9000 ( talk) 14:33, 11 June 2021 (UTC)
This page says "Chinese" and "China's" way more than any NASA rovers. It is very weird that only this article gets this treatment. It makes the rover seem foreign and from far away. TigerScientist Chat > contribs 22:56, 11 June 2021 (UTC)

I heard from a couple sources that Zhurong had gone to sleep after a dust storm (the same one that killed InSight) and can't be recontacted right now, but attempts are still being made. Should the page be updated to include the rover's status, or should we wait?
Edit: never mind, it looks like someone added it now! 174.100.203.31 ( talk) 17:04, 22 January 2023 (UTC)
I feel like there should be some mention of the fact that this is the fastest rover. I didn't see any in the page.
Edit to comment: it says in the article linked to note 42 that the top speed is 200 meters per hour (0.12 mph), for comparison it says on the NASA website that the fastest one of their rovers was 0.10 mph. That's how I found out. 174.100.203.31 ( talk) 02:50, 27 January 2023 (UTC)
