Check out the first images of Mars from China’s Tianwen-1 probe

The image, which was taken at a distance of 1.36 million miles from the Red Planet’s surface, captured several noteworthy geographical features. A labelled version of the image provided by the CNSA notes the locations of Acidalia Planitia (1), Chryse Planitia (2), Meridiani Planum (3), Schiaparelli Crater (4) and Valles Marineris (5). By the time the image was released last week, Tianwen-1 had halved the distance to Mars and is now preparing to enter orbit.
