We have two functioning rovers on Mars. Name me another country that has even one functioning rover on Mars.

Wanna go further than Mars?

"Voyager 1 is the most distant man-made object in space, currently 164.7 Astronomical Units (AU) from Earth. It's traveling at a speed of 38,026.79 miles per hour (17.0 kilometers per second) relative to the Sun."

China landed a functioning rover on Mars years ago. If your point is that China isn’t capable of this sort of technology, this proves you wrong.

I know all about that rover. My point is that only the USA has functioning rovers on Mars today.

Curiosity - Landed on August 6, 2012

Perserverance - Landed on Feb. 18, 2021

Zhurong - Landed on May 14, 2021 and lasted for about 1 year

No other country has been able to land and operate a rover on Mars.
