How did Nasa engineers build a helicopter to fly on Mars?

Ingenuity helicopter built from cutting-edge materials and off-the-shelf components Nasa s Ingenuity helicopter on the Martian surface. Nasa  Nasa will try to fly Ingenuity on Mars. If successful, it will be the first powered, controlled flight on another planet. Pictured is an illustration of the rotorcraft. Nasa As part of the first test flight, Ingenuity will climb three metres, hover for 30 seconds and then descend back on the Martian surface. Nasa Ingenuity hitched a ride on the Perseverance rover to reach the Red Planet. The rover landed at the Jezero Crater on February 18.

As well as the lower gravity, the helicopter faces the challenge of flying in the Martian atmosphere, which is about 100 times thinner than Earth’s. As it is a technology demonstration, the helicopter does not have any scientific instruments on board. Ingenuity will attempt additional experimental flights, which will involve travelling further distances and increasing altitudes. All together the helicopter will aim for up to five test flights within a 30 Martian-day (31 Earth-day) demonstration window. It is designed to be mostly autonomous, so Nasa will not be able to control the helicopter remotely. This is because of the distance between Earth and Mars – it takes more than 11 minutes to get a radio signal back to Earth.
