China's Mars rover Zhurong has accomplished its exploration and detection tasks as planned, according to the China National Space Administration (CNSA) on Tuesday. As of Aug 15, 2021, Zhurong had worked on the surface of Mars for 90 Martian days, or about 92 days on Earth, with all scientific payloads having started to work on detection tasks, said the administration. The rover has traveled 889 meters as of Aug 15, and its scientific payloads have collected about 10 GB of raw data.

国家航天局8月17日表示，截至8月15日，祝融号火星车在火星表面运行90个火星日(约92个地球日)，累计行驶889米，所有科学载荷开机探测，共获取约10GB原始数据，祝融号圆满完成既定巡视探测任务。

Now the rover runs stably and operates in good condition with sufficient energy. The CNSA added that the rover will continue to move to the boundary zone between the ancient sea and the ancient land in the southern part of Utopia Planitia and will carry out additional tasks.

当前，火星车状态良好、步履稳健、能源充足，将继续向乌托邦平原南部的古海陆交界地带行驶，实施拓展任务。
