These images include two panchromatic view and one colour image, said the China National Space Administration (CNSA). The panchromatic images were taken by the high-resolution camera of China’s spacecraft, Tianwen-1 meaning Questions to Heaven, at a distance of 330 to 350 km above the surface of Mars. In the images, Martian landforms such as small craters, mountain ridges and dunes are clearly visible.
