"The drone, called Ingenuity, was airborne for less than a minute, but it is the first powered, controlled flight by an aircraft on another world.

Ingenuity was carried to Mars in the belly of Nasa's Perseverance Rover, which touched down on the Red Planet in February.

This successful attempt means that a further four flights will be attempted over the coming days, each one taking the helicopter further afield.

"Why are they only wearing two masks?"

Who says they are only wearing two masks? They probably have high tech masks you can't even see.

They're NASA for crying out loud. They have masks and then more masks backing that one up and then other hardly visible masks backing that one up ...
