- Ingenuity Mars Helicopter 7th Flight Preview -
I am calling this video an adjunct to the video I just posted...on the same subject... That one was based on some minor input from NASA... This video is more detailed even though short...
As I understand it, the 7th flight has been accomplished but it takes a day or two to send, receive and process the images for Video usage...
This video has only had 152 views since June 6th...
Here is the description from NASA:
"The next flight of NASA’s Ingenuity Mars Helicopter will take place no earlier than this Sunday, June 6. Regardless of flight date, data will be returned to Earth over the subsequent three days.
The flight profile will send Ingenuity to a location about 350 feet (106 meters) south of its current location, where it will touch down at its new base of operations. This will mark the second time the helicopter will land at an airfield that it did not survey from the air during a previous flight. Instead, the Ingenuity team is relying on imagery collected by the HiRISE camera aboard NASA’s Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter that suggests this new base of operations is relatively flat and has few surface obstructions."
