Ingenuity is not exactly on many people’s minds. Who even knows of much less pays any attention to Ingenuity?

Ginny doesn’t even rate her own emoji.

😢

I only saw your post after writing post 6, which contains my perspective on the matter.

This little helicopter is a living parable! Ingenuity *is* life on Mars, born from Perseverance of the eve of Easter, spending that first night all alone in the cold.

Would she make it through?

Can Do!

Weird stuff is going on all over the place.

I enjoy your posts, even if the Mars helicopter doesn't fly by my house! It is still amazing.

When I was a kid, my dad bought one of the first TVs with remote control (A made in USA Magnavox). The remoote control had an ultrasonic mechanical pizo element that would send out an audible "ping". When the TV heard that "ping" sound, it would change channels--all three of them! LOL. I don't think ultrasonic remote control will reach as far as Mars …

In general, I've been somewhat down on space programs since the Russians killed Laika the Space dog. That story still makes me sad.
