On April 19th, 2021, history was made. Ingenuity proved, autonomous, powered controlled flight was possible on another planet [1]. The mission was to fly in the thin Martian air, which is just about 1% of Earth’s atmospheric pressure was a success and the scientists have been bold enough to try three times, with each time Ingenuity has flown higher and longer. The success of these flights is steadily providing us the confidence and hope of more successful aircraft missions to other planets. The data provided by the Ingenuity flights is crucial for future drone designs and understanding the geology of the Mars. Ingenuity is complementing Perseverance with its ability to fly directly over craters and obstacles and provide valuable images something that Persevera

Meet Bob Balram: The IITian behind NASA s first flight on Mars

Meet Bob Balram: The IITian behind NASA s first flight on Mars The chief engineer of Ingenuity helicopter is an Indian Institute of Technology (IIT-Madras) alumni, Bob Balram who completed his mechanical engineering between 1975-1980 BusinessToday.In | April 20, 2021 | Updated 16:52 IST Bob Balram, chief engineer of Ingenuity NASA successfully completed the first powered and controlled flight of the Ingenuity helicopter using atmospheric lift on Mars on April 19, 2021. Touted as the first-ever powered flight on another planet besides Earth, the robotic helicopter took off vertically, hovered and landed on the dusty red surface of Mars. Hailed as the Wright Brother moment, the mini 1.8 kg copter even carried a wing fabric from the 1903 Wright Flyer. The historic achievement is not just a proud moment for Nasa but also for Indians too as the chief engineer of Ingenuity is an Indian Institute of Technology (IIT-Madras) alumni, Bob Balram who completed his mechanical engineering b
