For everyone who can't read...
This photo was taken after the Zhurong rover (left) placed a camera about 10 meters from the landing platform (right) and then retreated to take a group portrait. The images were transmitted from the camera to the rover through wireless signals. |

For comparison the Chinese Mars rover weighs (530 lbs)
The US Mars rover is car-sized, about 10 feet long (not including the arm), 9 feet wide, and 7 feet tall (2,260 lbs) |
