Perseverance rover captures sound of Ingenuity flying on Mars Issued on: 07/05/2021 - 18:54 This NASA photo shows NASA s Ingenuity Mars Helicopter achieves powered, controlled flight for the first time on another planet Handout NASA/AFP/File 3 min Washington (AFP) NASA s Perseverance rover has for the first time captured the low-pitched whirring of the Ingenuity helicopter s blades as it flies through the rarefied Martian atmosphere. The space agency on Friday released new footage shot by the six-wheeled robot of its rotorcraft companion making its fourth flight on April 30 this time accompanied by an audio track. The nearly three-minute-long video begins with the low rumble of the wind blowing across the Jezero Crater, where Perseverance landed in February on a mission to search for signs of ancient microbial life. ....
Perseverance captured audio of Ingenuity during its fourth flight on Mars on April 30 It is the first time a spacecraft on another planet has recorded sound of a separate craft The audio captures dim humming of the helicopter s rotors as it flew The rover sat 262ft from the solar helicopter and NASA said it was a surprise to hear the hum of the rotors due to the thin Martian atmosphere Ingenuity is set to make its fifth flight Friday with take off at 3:26pm ET ....
Watch and hear NASA’s Ingenuity copter zip around on Mars The mini helicopter’s companion rover, Perseverance, captured video and the first audio of Ingenuity’s flight Share this story NASA just released video and audio of its mini Mars helicopter, Ingenuity, flying around the Martian surface during its fourth flight test, as captured by the craft’s robotic partner Perseverance from nearly a football field’s distance away. The footage, combining audio and video of an Ingenuity flight test for the first time, starts off with the soft, rumbling hum of the Martian wind. Ingenuity can be seen stationary on the surface in the right-hand corner of the frame before taking off for flight. When the copter ascends, the ambient hum intensifies; the faint, muffled sound of Ingenuity’s twin rotor blades spinning at 2,537 RPM picks up and it eventually zips across the frame. ....
NASA s Perseverance Captures Video, Audio of Fourth Ingenuity Flight Sounds of the Mars Helicopter’s whirring rotors add another new dimension to the historic project. For the first time, a spacecraft on another planet has recorded the sounds of a separate spacecraft. NASA’s Perseverance Mars rover used one of its two microphones to listen as the Ingenuity helicopter flew for the fourth time on April 30, 2021. A new video combines footage of the solar-powered helicopter taken by Perseverance’s Mastcam-Z imager with audio from a microphone belonging to the rover’s SuperCam laser instrument. The laser zaps rocks from a distance, studying their vapor with a spectrometer to reveal their chemical composition. The instrument’s microphone records the sounds of those laser strikes, which provide information on the physical properties of the targets, such as their relative hardness. The microphone can also record ambient noise, like the Martian wind. ....
