Originality: NASA's Mars unmanned helicopter

    

The ingenuity, which weighs about 4 pounds (1.8 kg) on earth, is about the size of a tissue box. It came out six years ago, and the prospects are incredible. Engineers at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Southern California know that it is theoretically possible to fly in Mars's thin atmosphere, but no one is sure that they will be able to build a powerful vehicle capable of autonomous flight, communication and survival within the extreme limits of its mass. The team then had to prove in ground tests that it could fly in a Martian like environment. Now that they have achieved these goals, the team is preparing to test ingenuity in a real Martian environment. "Our Mars helicopter team has done things that we've never done before - none of them can be trusted or even completed in the beginning," said mimion, innovation project manager at JPL. "We've had a lot of challenges along the way to stop our tracks. We're excited that we're so close to showing what creativity can do on Mars. " "Smart" withstood a strong shock when it was launched on July 30, 2020, passed a health check, and was waiting to persevere through the Martian atmosphere. But the helicopter won't try its first flight until more than a month after landing: engineers at the rover and helicopter need time to make sure both robots are ready. Here are the key things we need to know about creativity: 1. Originality is an experimental flight test. 2. It is not easy to make the first powered and controlled flight on Mars. 3. The "Mars 2020 tough" program is to arrive at Mars safely and operate on the surface of Mars. Ingenuity is the intelligence of a small robot. 5. Ingenuity's team calculates success step by step. 6. If originality is successful, future Mars exploration may include ambitious aerial exploration.
