How many birds have you seen fly with spinning wings?

Rest well Ingenuity. Thank you to all on worked on this.

Thanks for everything, Ingenuity. I'm excited to see what else is in store for other missions in the future.

You don't have to convince me that Ingenuity was an incredible achievement!

Ingenuity has truly made me x100 interest in planetary exploration. The potential of flying to explore is something that wasn't even possible 250 years ago on Earth! Thank you JPL, for inspiring future generations, myself included. 💖

Truly amazing mission. Congratulations to all the scientists who worked on ingenuity 🎉❤

Great Job NASA Ingenuity Team! I should have followed you guys more! The fact you can use propeller flight on another planet that "supposedly" doesn't have an atmosphere is just INSANE!!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!

Yes. You. Do!

Ingenuity has transformed what is possible on mars with flight. Now it’s proven you can fly on mars which is far easier than all those hard sharp rocks degrading land transport on mars. Flying missions will be faster and give you clear topographical data and mapping in detail for other ground missions.✌️❤️🇬🇧

When can we expect the next chopper on mars?

One of my favorite missions, so well done!

I took notice when I heard that we are now flying on mars. Perserverance and ingenuity have me completely captivated. Thank u to all the wonderful scientist and engineers and anyone else who has created this for all of the world to enjoy. Endlessly fascinating 🇦🇺🇺🇸

outstanding work - awesome project and results

Well done Ingenuity you have paved way for future exploration of the red planet and beyond

Ingenuity Helicopter is one of NASA's all-time greatest success stories....and we all got to "fly along"! Thanks guys! Also it seem that now we should design a copter to fly to and retrieve all those sample tubes along with farther recon stuff!

Retrieving the sample tubes is the easy part. Getting them back to Earth is the Challenge - involving lift-off from Mars, rendezvous with an orbiter, and returning to Earth. We've never done that before, and the cost puts a huge hole in NASA's budget in competition with the super expensive Artemis program. Actually dropping off the samples is no biggie. That last step has been done several times successfully.

1:47 YES YES!!! LETS GOO I can't wait to see these new concepts fly on Mars just like Ingenuity, I love how NASA now has the ability to explore locations you can't with traditional rovers, who knows what we'll find where rovers can't tread and satellites can't resolve

Ingenuity was the perfect design. Congratulations to all of those involved. Can't wait for the next one to land on Mars. ❤

Such an awesome mission. We are glad to see this in our lifetime & more awesome missions to come. Sad to see Ingenuity in bad shape😓

Go NASA!

Kudos to you folks, remarkable work for something that was just a proof of concept, a bit sad ingenuity went down, however it went way beyond its operation perimeters and time thanks to you folks, encore!

Heroes of Space Exploration; Salute

Yes their is a lot of undersurface water on Mars

I want to say our beloved Ingenuity Helicoptor - Thank you , You is the matchstick that lighten and burned up the initial area of boundaries and pushed the boundaries .... hence expanding it. love you

Mars Helicopter is a huge success!!! Bravo JPL!!! 😀👍🚁

Good work guys 👍💪🎉

Ingenuity was an incredible success. When humans begin to have a presence on Mars I hope one day it finds it way back to the Smithsonian. Huge congratulations to the team for this achievement.

I really enjoy it when NASA scores so many engineering wins. You all are rockin'!

Amazing ❤

Good job Ingenuity

How cool❤👏👏👏👏👏

Brilliant

Really interesting and promising 😊

In the future, it would be nice to bring ingenuity back to Earth and display it for all to see.

Let’s land people near ingenuity, retrieve it, return it, and have it on display in an international science museum

Rest assured that we use metric internally. We convert to english units when communicating with the American public. Our highest speed was 10 m/s and highest altitude was 24 m. Nice round metric numbers ;)

If you practice Trial with your motorcycle, you will have your eyes scanning every stone under the wheels, but if you want to go faster on a highway, you will have to raise your head and eyes to look further ahead. A simple cruise flight system inside a crater could include like a navigation aid to fly mantaining aligned two far conspicuous points. Like the leading marks used by sailors to enter a narrow channel. Visual reference only: No GPS constellations, no compass. Two visible points can be two rocks on top of each other, the higher one being some distance further back. The further apart the two visible and conspicuous points are, the better the range axis.

It would help us appreciate the missions many things if you told us those many things. There were about four things mentioned here all of which were triumphs of surviving a test as compared actual usage.

Despite all our ingenuity and advancement in technology, why is the camera quality so low?

I can see a future popular saying now, "Okay, that was cool, but it wasn't Robot Helicopter On Mars cool!"

Wow

I love telling people that because of Ingenuity we can accurately say that Perseverance is a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier.

even tho you have rotor damage it still may fly after all you safely landed it ,you have nothing to lose so fly it.This could be good science and we can learn just how much damage we can tolerate in the Martian atmosphere.

RIP ingenuity helicopter blades :(

@Thunderf00t, So you were saying?

I hope you make the new drone , and I think I know how to recover the drone you have to lander to fit the Rover🚀📡

I saw news yesterday that some fragmets flyoff from the blades due the landing :( is it still capable to fly ?

When helicopter blades are damaged and become unbalanced the chance of successful flight rapidly approaches zero. Unbalanced rotor blades spinning at 2,500 RPM is guaranteed to cause trouble. A way to spend a little money and vividly illustrate the concept is to get a two-rotor toy RC helicopter, saw about a thumb's width off even just 1 blade, then try to fly it.

@@scottfw7169 intresting moment here that the blades were broken on both sides of the same blade. so there are some chances that its equal enoght to not create disbalance during fly..

goodbye little helicopter gone too soon...😢

Three flights my A$$!!! Well done Ingenuity!!! You'll be missed.

I have a question: Why Ingenuity's rotor blades are so sharp on photos of its shadow? If I understand correctly, Mars' atmosphere is of 1% dense of the Earth's, and that rotor had to go insanely fast - almost supersonic, to make this device fly. With that quick rotation I would expect those blades to be circular blurs, not sharp edges on photos of the flying Ingenuity...

From what I remember it has something to do with the navigation camera itself

You need to put greater emphasis on the fact that Ingenuity proved the long-term durability of 2014-era off-the-shelf automotive rated consumer electronics that are vastly, VASTLY more powerful than the 1990s-era IC feature size, radiation hardened CPUs currently used in the MSLs. That VASTLY greater computing power will be needed for AI and rapid image processing for AI and should also be used in highly redundant arrays IN THE ROVERS THEMSELVES.

@@_TravisBrown Why? I remember trying to explain this to my son when he was in high school physics when he questioned NASA's use of English standard units in their communications. I could not come up with any logical explanation why NASA would do such a thing other than to think we, as a Nation were not capable of understanding, for the sake of engagement. To this day... smh time to move on.

🙏🙏

Ingenuity is our first-ever drone flight in human history: But why are we jumping too far ahead of ourselves with Dragonfly? We don't even have a comprehensive map of Titan's shrouded surface and have no experience on how Titan's atmosphere works save Huygens. You could land on a boulder there. Prioritize the probe to Uranus first - follow the decadal survey - and consider the fact that it will take 13 years to reach Uranus.

I might be out of context here but I would like to know if anyone else wants the comments section to be open on NASA's official channel?

Also, I will help pay for another bigger chopper....That could potentially hoist and fly the Curiosity rover to another location. And even get it out of trouble if stuck....

It went like flying colors. :D Now onward to make rotors sand proof. If only like there could be like a little sheild of air. Or like idk, hurrrr uh uh well bullet proof. I ant no sciuencesusisitist

It's not hard to do an approximate conversions in your head by simply knowing a meter is less than a yard and a kilometer is less than a mile. When I'm watching a BBC Earth documentary and David Attenborough says "ten kilometers away from the penguins" my American brain knows that's something around six miles. I don't grumble about Attenborough and the BBC Earth team forcing me to figure things out against my will. Best wishes from Vermont ❄️
