China’s Zhurong vs. NASA’s Perseverance: Rover Tech in Mars Space Race | WSJ 

Anything China does, Media would relate it to politics.

I hope those two robots will see each other in peace at Mars while laughing at us fighting each other on earth. May they have a great relationship.

This is the kind of competition everyone wants, which is about creating a brighter future for human civilization

Came here for space science And now I'm a full time politician 😂

News after some months: Perseverance and Zhurong met and started their own family on mars.

It landed an hour back successfully. Congratulations China for the achievement.

When we see WSJ get someone to talk about politic in this science exploration, it's utter disgusting!!!

Am I the only one who would like to see these vehicles come together and make an episode of "Martian Robot Tank Battles"

Keep politics out of this please. This is the kind of positive competition the world needs. No need to constantly thumb others down.

Congratulations to China Space program! The people who work so hard behind the scene to make the landing happened should be extremely proud.

Does anyone remember "China is the real sick man of Asia" published by the Wall Street Journal?

I'm Indian , and I congratulate China for this great achievement.

the next thing to do is to start building the rocket for saving Matt Damon.

What you completely skipped over was that it was the US who banned China from working with them which led to this.

Seven minutes summarised in one sentence: the US is still very much ahead on the subject of exploring Mars but China is catching up at a staggering pace.

I hope Chinese Zhurong rover sended enough food for Matt Damon😊

I like how the conversation is sooo focused on politics and not space exploration

Landed successfully, congratulations

are we going to have a robot fight on Mars I cannot be the only one who want this

"stored in the rovers tummy" LOL dude, my teachers would flip if I wrote anything that informal, meanwhile some journalist at the wall street jurnal:

stop wasting your time comparing! CN: focus on doing better US: focus on stopping others doing better

This is the type of competition that we need, not wars and corruption edit : the reply here is a bit spicy so open at ur own risk

You can hate China all you want, but you have to acknowledge the achievement of landing a rover on their first attempt.

Congratulations!!! 祝贺中国伟大的科学家们

Yes . it's a healthy competition between nations..no fighting but adding success of landing and more explorations...and future studies ...good luck

Congratulations from Toronto, to my motherland China 🇨🇳❤️

Battle Bots in Mars would be pretty epic

Great success for Chinese 👍

Congratulations to both U.S. & China for the successful ventures! Let the fireworks lit up the sky!

successful landing confirmed.

this generation needed a healthy space race. i hope it stays civil, we should be like a group jogging a marathon together, some will be ahead and that encourages the ones behind to push harder to catch up, but no matter what, no one is mean to the ones who take longer to finish the race, and no one is mean if they catch up or surpass the others. this isnt a war, its a race, healthy competitive encouragement to be better and further the knowledge and reach of humanity as a whole. i sure hope everyone realizes this.. were in this together, were a tiny spec on the surface of this universe, we better start singing kumbaya as a species because guess what? we might find out our planet is in danger from asteroids or coronal mass ejections or climate change and we will have to do things to save our species from extinction and it would be horrible if some races excluded others from continuing because of land borders, you know? space exploration is the fun part, its where we learn, to prepare for the not so fun parts that could be lurking in the future

This guy is so excited to inform and educate. A splendid interview selection, very much so.

Bring a rocket scientist or an astrophysicist to talk about these issues. Not some lawyer from a think tank.

give me a hug please. Our Chinese Mars rover just successfully landed on Mars 30 minutes ago. 😭😭😭 🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳

JIAYOU !!!! 👍👍👍👍CONGRATULATIONS CHINA FROM INDONESIAN 👍👍👍👍,,👋👋👋👋😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣

A remarkable accomplishment. Congratulations are due.

Just now it successfully landed on the Mars! Congratulations to CNSA🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳Hoping China human moon landing and scientific laboratory will go fast and succeed as soon as possible! This year is really essential and meaningful for China, like success of Quantum computer zuchongzi and quantum satellite Mozi, artificial sun nuclear fusion reactor, Tiangong space station, Kuaizhou cargo spaceship, manned deep-sea submersible......really amazing

Congratulations China. From Australia!

China engineer, scientist, capability cannot be underestimated.

Cool. They actually incorporated deployments. Although they didn't fully use a system that can deploy more things, at least they use modular design and deployment. I wonder if they use anchors instead of weight to attach the 'base'.

Someone cannot stop but admiring how China have come so far in just a short period of time.

Everyone should appreciate this great efforts. Don’t narrate chinese achievement negatively.

A quote from a space professor at CMU about Chinese space program scientists: "There's hard working, but there are different levels of hard working."

There's no comparison. China's Zhurong runs on solar power. NASA's Perseverance runs on RTG, which avails plenty of juice, thus is able to run more instruments day and night, irrespective of sunlight and dust. Still China nailed it at its first try to Mars, which in itself was very impressive.

I do not understand the reasoning for politicizing these accomplishments. This is for research purposes and does not provide any group with an “advantage” since all information is shared. Well done scientists for both projects 👏 A step forward for all of Humanity!

One mission accomplished three successive technical goals at the first attempt, huge congratulations to China!

Cool now we don't have to do everything ourselves anymore. This will definitely propels space exploration into full speed just like back in the 60s. Really really excited to see DC and Beijing competing in space.

祖国每一次进步都让我热泪盈眶。

The world is one big family, "Together we can &We will make a difference "..Thanks to Our lovely scientists, doctors whose hardworking pays in abundance

Congratulations from India🇮🇳

"NASA is an open private organization" is one of the best American jokes I have heard this year.

兔子：鹰酱，我来啦！😂 鹰酱：死兔子，我怎么在哪儿都能看见你啊！？

Hopefully by 2050, China and the US can put their difference aside, and work in space together. It's kind of stupid to have two super powers fighting each other out there, it's actually kind of awkward because there would be no real reason to be fighting in the first place, space is huge with tons of resources for everyone. I get that here on Earth, resources are finite, but out there, endless resources.

China's Zhurong rover has landed on Mars. May 14, 7PM UTC-6.

I just want to see Zhrurong vs Perseverance on Pay per View.

Two interviewees, one Harvard astrophysicist and one heritage foundation senior research fellow. Both commented on the Mars landing.The narratives are, however, very different.

Impressive China!!!! Am excited for the future os space Congrats. Orbiter, lander and rover all in one

So Proud CHINA Jiayou- Shoutout from ASIA Haters will die hating no matter what their life is full of negativity ;-P

I want to see a Perseverance vs. Zhurong pvp

if both nation space sciences work together(without political concern), this will be a real big leap for mankind space exploration.

i don't have a single problem having them fighting a robot only war on mars and leave the earth along, totally ok with that

We don't want to compete with the United States. China's technology is still far behind the United States. Hundreds of years ago, Zheng He stopped the great navigation, which led to China's missing the great change of the world. Today's space exploration, like the great navigation in those days, has no economic benefits, but it represents China's determination to move forward.

I love how its calleed the rover's tummy instead of compartment or cavity. XD

Martian: I definitely saw a UFO Martian pentagon: Fake news!!!!

Perseverance x Zhurong robot ship fanfiction when? 🤔😂

China is doing all these all alone without any immigrants. That's what impresses me more.

I think it's very exciting we need lots of countries to take part

Great new~~~ can’t wait for interplanetary travel in the future

"And then these are stored here, inside the rover's tummy." Why does this make me so uncomfortable lol

As an Asian, I'm so proud of it!

Hi Chris thanks again in your company

keep moving forward!

Im American I would like to congratulate the Chinese space program on landing on mars more the merrier

Am a amazed by it all, overwhelming!

This is good for competition, I like it

The US government went crazy after watching China's success.

Congratulations from Paris, inteliigent and lovely Chineses. Great 5000 years and counting long civilization

The more people mention " Made In China: the more it shows how popular it is.. its almost like this kind of thing that people cant avoid.. you cant avoid made in China.

This video one of the best video on mars

Am I the only one thinking about writing some fanfiction about those two rovers??? It has so much potential!!!

I am actually excited to see the space race starts. Without serious competition, not much progress in space program was made by USA for last two decades. No matter which side makes more progress temporarily, at the end human make progress to expand their reach in space. Don't let your national pride consumes you. But admittedly, It is fun to watch the interaction of cheerleaders from both sides :-)

I'm glad that there is another country in the competition just like back in the race to the moon days; it will be race to Mars now instead.

Can't wait for those two to meet up, transform into giant robots and fight each other

Hopefully this turns out like the show “for all mankind” (without the violence). Massive leaps in technology because competition

Congratulations!

This is the first time china send a space craft to the mars and also first time landing on mars. Just one time, and it succeeded. I was so touched. 恭喜中国。我好骄傲。 🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳❤️

There’s only one sensible way to find out which rover is best. Get them together and have a Mars drag race.

Google says China space budget in 2018 was USD 5.8bn and in 2021 it is USD8.9bn. NASA budget in 2021 is USd24.8bn. So not a big mystery. I would probably be able to get a break down if I could write in Chinese.

Congrats, China ! Well-done, Tianwen 1 !

祝贺，只有中国人才知道祖国发展到今天有多么不容易。

The new "Space-Race". Bring it on!

We have so much to catch up but we are reaching for it!

6:05 It is a good excuse for NASA to ask for more funding now.

the best "made in China" commercial

It's not the first win the race . Congratulations China . Competition make great achievement.

I like this from China getting to Mars. This will bring great competition to the space race which in general is good for everyone really.

Truly heartiest congratulations to our scientists, engineers in China..Thanks China

Wow China! First you have been successful with Chang'e dark side of the Moon landing. Second you have been successful with Tianhe Core Module orbiting. Now thirdly you have been successful in the Mars landing of Tianwen-1 with the Zhurong Rover. A Coopers to you. From Australia.

Congratulations, and many people around the world are joyful like you.🛸🛰🪂🌌

Does anybody hear something from that scrapped Zhulong ?
