Funny thought... if NASA's been faking these flights, would anyone be able to tell?
Now *that's* Ingenuity,
the ultimate question of life, the universe and everything. 😉
Life finds a way.

I wonder if they could use that drone to blow the dust off of the Rover’s sun panels.
And if not blow the dust off, drag a towel over it.
We do know where our towel is don’t we? That’s rule #1.
That sounds like a great idea.
They named that rover “Perseverance”, so it’s a good thought.
Any breakthrough formulas for a Mars Tang flavor??

For $85 mil, that's asking a lot.
Ginny's blades are about 4 feet wide and spin at 2400–2700 rpm. That would be high-risk dusting.
