Don’t bees require an actual atmosphere to fly?
Their wings need to actually have something to use. If there is no atmosphere, there is nothing for the wings to “hit” when they flap, so they won’t work.
Is there an atmosphere on Mars? I thought there was not.

Mars has a very thin atmosphere ~.6% of Earth’s sea level atmosphere.
Mars also has a bit over 1/3 G, so those wings would have to be pretty big for the size of the flying machine.

There is an atmosphere, but it only has a fraction of the density of Earth’s atmosphere at sea level.

In fact, they have dust storms there.
