NASA’s Mars helicopter Ingenuity completes third successful flight:
NASA completed the third successful flight of its Mars helicopter Ingenuity on Sunday.
The NASA Jet Propulsion Lab in Pasadena, Calif., announced the successful flight in a tweet Sunday morning, declaring that the helicopter “continues to set records” flying faster and farther.
C’mon, man, Martian records that we know of are currently pretty easy to break, ainna?
But let’s look to the future: That little thing should have a couple Hellfire missiles on it.
Because later rovers will have that capability (China invokes mythic god of war and fire for its Mars rover name).
