For the first time, scientists have examined a helicopter on another planet. Nasa JPL’s Ingenuity mission managers say that the helicopter can get a second life on the Red Planet (Purple Planet). Scientists have said that the helicopter’s battery sensors are working and this helicopter will now continue to function as a kind of climate station. It will record telemetry. Each will take pictures of the sole and store them on the board.
NASA JPL has spent several months investigating the Ingenuity accident. It has been revealed that the structure of the surface of Mars is such that the helicopter’s navigation system knew very little about it. NASA has finished its investigation. It has not reached any conclusive result because the crash site is far away from Earth on Mars. Scientists say that the place of the accident is 16 crore kilometers away from the Earth. There is no black box there. There is no eye witness.
When the Ingenuity helicopter flew on Mars, it used to communicate with the Perseverance rover. The picture that scientists received after the emergency landing showed that all four blades of Ingenuity were damaged. NASA had sent Ingenuity helicopter for a limited time to fly on Mars. The helicopter had already achieved its target.
