Plus, the Moon's low gravity means that Yutu must have thrown up much more rocks than the MERs would have on Mars.
small enough to get kicked up, won't have the energy to shear through a cable. Something large enough wouldn't get lifted up in the first place.
The China Space FB group has today posted a very nice picture of the large triangular rock that Yutu was driving towards. I have not seen this elsewhere.https://fbcdn-sphotos-f-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-xpa1/t1.0-9/10423795_737090639685273_8172128033035313925_n.jpg
Awesome! Yutu rover is in full chat mode with data on 8462.0605MHz! FFT at http://pjm.uhf-satcom.com/twtr/yutu_130614.jpg … - great to see it downlinking data again!
