NASA Now Knows Why Its Mars Helicopter Crashed

NASA has finally revealed why its Ingenuity Helicopter crashed on the Martian surface in January, earlier this year. Engineers from NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) and AeroVironment conducted the in-depth assessment and concluded that the failure of Ingenuity's navigation system to provide accurate data "during the flight likely caused a chain of events that ended the mission". As per the flight data, Ingenuity reached an altitude of 12 m…

NASA explains why Mars helicopter Ingenuity crashed on its 72nd flight

The Ingenuity Mars Helicopter was confused by the featureless, rippled ground below it.

Nearly a year after NASA’s helicopter “Ingenuity” crashed on Mars, engineers have identified what they believe went wrong on its final flight.
NASA’s Ingenuity was designed as a technology demonstration experiment to see if the four-pound helicopter could fly in Mars’s thin atmosphere, which is about 1 percent of the density of Earth’s. The rotorcraft became the first powered, controlled aircraft on another planet.
At first, Ingenuity was schedu…

NASA Identifies Why Mars Helicopter ‘Ingenuity’ Crashed on Its Final Flight

NASA flew the Ingenuity helicopter on Mars. This helicopter had a hard landing during its 72nd flight this year. Since then the question was being raised whether Ingenuity's life is over. After a lot of investigation, it has been found that Ingenuity has got a second life. It will do another job on Mars.

NASA ने मंगल ग्रह पर इंजीन्यूटी हेलिकॉप्टर उड़ाया. इस हेलिकॉप्टर की इस साल अपनी 72वीं उड़ान के समय हार्ड लैंडिंग हो गई थी. तब से ये सवाल उठ रहा था कि क्या इंजीन्यूटी की जिंदगी खत्म हो गई. काफी जांच-पड़ताल के बाद ये पता चला है कि इंजीन्यूटी को दूसरी जिंदगी मिल गई है. वो मंगल पर दूसरा काम करेगा.
