Robert “Red” Jensen and Justin Hall position an atmospheric probe, its host cradle, and the rotorcraft that will air launch the probe at NASA’s Armstrong Flight Research Center in Edwards, California. Jensen and Hall are designers, technicians, and pilots at the center’s Dale Reed Subscale Flight Research Laboratory.

Members of NASA's Ingenuity Mars Helicopter team got together for a team photo on the second anniversary of the rotorcraft's first flight on Mars. The image was taken at the agency's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Southern California on April 19, 2023. https://photojournal.jpl.nasa.gov/catalog/PIA25882

This artist concept shows the Mars Helicopter, a small, autonomous rotorcraft, which will travel with NASA's Mars 2020 rover mission, currently scheduled to launch in July 2020, to demonstrate the viability and potential of heavier-than-air vehicles on the Red Planet. https://photojournal.jpl.nasa.gov/catalog/PIA22460

A small piece of foreign object debris (FOD) is seen in footage from the navigation camera of NASA's Ingenuity Mars Helicopter during its 33rd flight on Mars on Sept 24, 2022. The FOD is seen attached to one of the rotorcraft's landing legs, then drifting away. Movie available at https://photojournal.jpl.nasa.gov/catalog/PIA25331

NASA's Ingenuity Mars Helicopter's navigation camera captured the rotorcraft in shadow during its 52nd flight on April 26, 2023. This image was finally received after Perseverance and Ingenuity were out of communication for 63 days. https://photojournal.jpl.nasa.gov/catalog/PIA25918

This color-enhanced image of the "Castell Henllys" region in Jezero Crater was taken by NASA's Ingenuity Mars Helicopter during the rotorcraft's 48th flight on March 21, 2023, the 741st Martian day, or sol, of the Perseverance rover's mission. At the time the image was taken, the helicopter was at an altitude of about 40 feet (12 meters). This image and others taken during the flight provided advanced reconnaissance to Perseverance scientists and planners roughly two weeks before the rover reached this area. https://photojournal.jpl.nasa.gov/catalog/PIA25890

This sequence of images – taken on May 22, 2021, by the navigation camera aboard NASA's Ingenuity Mars Helicopter – depicts the last 29 seconds of the rotorcraft's sixth flight. Frame rate is 3.3 frames per second until Ingenuity began its final descent to the surface, at which point it collected a frame every two seconds.
