NASA's solar-powered Ingenuity Mars Helicopter has completed its 33rd flight on the Red Planet. The tiny rotorcraft made this 55.2-second flight on September 24, reaching an altitude of 10 meters (33 ft) and covering 111.24 meters (365 ft) at a max speed of 4.75 meters per second.The helicopter rode to Mars attached to the belly of the Perseverance rover in July 2020 and landed at the planet's Jezero Crater on February 18, 2021. It has survived over a year beyond its original planned lifetime on the planet.The Sept. 24 flight was the flight for Ingenuity this month aimed at repositioning...

ASA's Ingenuity helicopter has flown again, taking to the Martian skies for the second time in as many weeks.Ingenuity traveled about 308 feet (94 meters) on Sunday (Sept. 18), staying aloft for more than 55 seconds and reaching a maximum speed of 10.6 mph (17.1 kph), according to NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory(opens in new tab) (JPL) in Southern California, which manages the Mars helicopter's mission.Sunday's flight was the 32nd for Ingenuity overall and its second this month; the 4-pound (1.8 kilograms) rotorcraft also lifted off on Sept. 6.

It was the first liftoff for Ingenuity in more than two months.NASA's Ingenuity helicopter now has 30 Martian flights under its belt.The 4-pound (1.8 kilograms) Ingenuity took to the skies on Saturday (Aug. 20) for the first time in more than two months, acing a short hop that was its 30th overall Red Planet sortie.Ingenuity had been grounded since June 11, through no fault of its own. It's winter at the helicopter's locale, the 28-mile-wide (45 kilometers) Jezero Crater, and the solar-powered Ingenuity isn't getting enough sunlight to keep its batteries charged both day and night, mission team members wrote...

It’s now dust season and winter on Mars, meaning there’s more dust in the air and less sunlight to help recharge Ingenuity’s batteries. Dust levels are expected to subside later in July, so the team has decided to give the helicopter’s batteries a break for a few weeks and build their daily state of charge back up. Weather permitting, Ingenuity is expected to be back in the air around the start of August.

Download image ›On Thursday, May 5, mission controllers at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory received confirmation that the agency’s Ingenuity Mars Helicopter had re-established communications with the Perseverance rover. Earlier in the week, the rotorcraft had missed a planned communications session with the rover – for the first time in over a year of operations on the Mars surface. Ingenuity relies on Perseverance as the base station that enables it to send data to and...

23 flights and counting! #MarsHelicopter successfully completed its 23rd excursion. It flew for 129.1 seconds over 358 meters. Data from Ingenuity in the new region it’s headed to will help the @NASAPersevere team find potential science targets. http://go.nasa.gov/ingenuity

Over the weekend, the #MarsHelicopter took its 22nd flight!🎉 The trip lasted 101.4 seconds and Ingenuity got up to 10 meters in the air. The team is planning another flight perhaps as early as later this week. See raw images from this flight: https://go.nasa.gov/3hVX0V3
