NASA: Flying the Mars Ingenuity helicopter is becoming 'increasingly difficult'
NASA's Mars helicopter risk has paid off, with Ingenuity continuing to scan the Martian landscape for the Perseverance rover.
It was a successful mission, but the helicopter's job is becoming much more difficult.
The atmosphere's density is decreasing in the Jezero Crater, which Grip says has a "major effect on Ingenuity's ability to fly."
Ingenuity is a problem solver. It's survived technological issues, software updates, and increasingly tough flights. Let's hope it soars past this latest hurdle.
