An early-stage Martian sailplane soared aloft, tethered to a balloon, as engineers ponder the possibilities to expand Red Planet flight.
University of Arizona and NASA researchers hope their design for a new lightweight, motorless sailplane will plug a gap in Martian data collection.
Scientists from the University of Arizona have developed a glider that could use wind patterns on Mars to fly over the planet for days at a time, by using a flight pattern similar to an albatross.
