View of mars. helicopters can cover more ground, can act as scout vehicles, can go into different areas that the rover cant go into. and then they can do coordinated science data. future manned missions to mars can utilise a drone helicopter. so there is a lot of opportunity. more than 100 years ago, the wright brothers made history with the first powered aircraft on earth. now a little mars helicopter has shown the same is possible on another planet, propelling us into a new era of space explor...

Looking down on the rover, and the rover�*s camera will film the helicopter, providing multiple views for the scientists to study. one of the things that helicopters are very well suited for it isjust looking around, scouting. you can traverse places without being hindered by the terrain. and so it could dojust kind of scouting missions for future rovers perhaps, or even for astronauts. the helicopter is part of nasas most ambitious mars mission to date. these are all images taken in the last ...

The parachute has deployed and were seeing... this mission has already revealed mars as never seen before, with the first ever footage of a thrilling descent, as the rover is lowered down to the martian surface. touchdown confirmed. now, nasa is ready to make history again. this time it will try to launch a helicopter. the first attempt at powered flight on another planet. this animation reveals how it might look, but with the extreme conditions on mars and the fact that theres barely any atmosp...
