NASA's "genius" helicopter made its fifth Martian flight today and will now be exploring new areas on the Red Planet.
"Genius" rose from the "tidal crater" of Mars last night at 23:56 Tehran time and climbed to a height of 5 meters. He then flew 129 meters south along the route of the previous mission. But last night's mission, unlike the previous three flights and the fourth mission that failed , was a one-way flight. "Genius" peaked after reaching the destination to a height of 10 meters, took photographs and then landed in a new place. The whole flight took 108 seconds and now has a new area to explore in front of this helicopter.
"We said goodbye to our first Martian home, the Wright Brothers Plain, and thank you for sponsoring the first historic flight of a helicopter helicopter on the planet," said Bob Balaram, a senior genius engineer at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL). "No matter where we go now, we will always remember how those two Dayton cyclists affected us on our first flight over another planet."
The genius of 30 Bahman landed at the mouth of the tide with the astronaut "Endurance". The helicopter detached from the endurance on April 5 and landed on the surface of the Red Planet. NASA expected to be able to fly with genius in just 30 days, but the successful operation of this 1.8 kg helicopter has now provided the conditions for more flights.
"The power supply system we've been worried about for years provides more energy than needed to keep the heating system on at night and flying during the day," said Josh Ravich, a senior mechanical engineer at JPL. "The navigation system, routing system and helicopter system are also in good condition."
Balaram says NASA's goal is for genius flights not to slow down endurance missions. The helicopter will likely make several more flights in the coming weeks, after which NASA will decide on its future. The organization has already gathered all the necessary information and the next missions will be carried out only to learn more about the flight of man-made birds over other planets.
