Rock Abundance and Erosion Rate at the Zhurong Landing Site in Southern Utopia Planitia on Mars

Abstract Rocks on the Martian surface exhibit signatures of geological activities. Rock distribution is also an important factor for landing site selection for exploration missions. This study investigated the rock abundance and erosion rate at the landing site of the Chinese Mars rover, Zhurong, in...
