Mars helicopter achieves fastest, furthest flight yet
The Ingenuity helicopter has successfully flown for the third time on Mars in a week. This time, the helicopter logged a flight that was faster, further and bolder than the previous ones, according to NASA.
Ingenuity exceeded speeds and distances beyond what it proved capable of doing during testing on Earth before launching to Mars.
That little helicopter is amazing.
Fun fact: The Mars helicopter weighs just 4 pounds and cost 85 million dollars to create.
