Chinese scientists hope to send the improved version of its rover on Mars

Despite the fact that the Chinese lunar rover "Yutu" out of order before the scheduled end of the lunar mission, this project could be called successful. In general, most of the project objectives are met, and unforeseen failure of the power unit, is responsible for the folding of sensitive elements in a heated box during the lunar night, a disaster for the project impossible. Anyway, the Chinese scientists believe that most of the tasks performed moonwalker.

Now a team of scientists to create a lunar rover, hoping to send a more advanced version of the system on Mars.

This, in particular, the head of the team is hoping lunar mission, Jia Yang (Jia Yang). In particular, scientists have expressed the hope that before his departure on a holiday, the Chinese experts to board automatic station on Mars.

By the way, the output of China's lunar rover fails the scientists compared with a hit in the throat of the monster, when the brain is still functioning, but the body can not do anything. About how you can describe the current state of the Chinese lunar rover. His "brain" is not damaged, and is capable of functioning without any problems, but the device itself is immobilized, as most systems out of service due to the low temperature of the moonlit night when the temperature drops to minus 150 degrees.

Not so long ago rover transmitted a signal to Earth, a signal indicating that the device is still working. But the continuation of the mission rover can not speak, the device is immobilized.

It is worth noting that China hopes to send a manned mission to the moon before the end of 2020, as well as to collect samples of rocks of Mars by the end of 2030.

Basically, after the Chinese showed themselves on the moon, doubt no longer necessary - China is able to execute his plan.
