Look who it is! I recently drove right past Ingenuity and got a pic after it ended its 53rd flight early. Happy to say it’s since completed a 54th flight to check out its systems. (Even caught a glimpse of me too!) Latest #MarsHelicopter status: go.nasa.gov/43YuiqW

Calling all explorers in #Albuquerque! You may know that @NASAPersevere and the #MarsHelicopter are on display at @NMMNHS – but did you know that @nasa experts will be there Friday, May 5 to answer all your nerdiest space questions? See you there! 🚀 Info: bit.ly/3pcHlGo

Spot the Spacecraft – a little challenge for you, in two levels of difficulty:

The #MarsHelicopter and I have been closer together lately, allowing us to snap pics of each other for the first time in a while. Can you find me in one of these images, and Ingenuity in the other? 🔍

This week at NASA, we marked the Ingenuity #MarsHelicopter's 50th flight on the Red Planet, the planet-hunting satellite TESS entered its fifth year, and we celebrated our favorite planet—Earth!

Got a closer look at the #MarsHelicopter than I’ve had in quite a while. Ingenuity is a little dustier since its first flight two years ago today (!!) – but it’s looking mighty good after 50 flights!

50/50: On the heels of the #JunoMission's 50th orbit of Jupiter, NASA's Ingenuity #MarsHelicopter has completed its 50th flight on Mars. The numbers are a coincidence, but the pace of exploration across the solar system is not! Join us for the journey: solarsystem.nasa.gov

Two years ago, I had just dropped off the #MarsHelicopter for its wild dream of a tech demo: flying on Mars. Now it has just notched its 50th flight. Talk about Ingenuity!

Designed as a technology demonstration that would fly five times, NASA’s Ingenuity #MarsHelicopter has completed its 50th flight – and lately it's been negotiating some of the most hazardous terrain it’s encountered on the Red Planet. go.nasa.gov/4130o46

Ingenuity perseveres.

Our #MarsHelicopter just flew its 50th flight on the Red Planet (out of a planned five), nearly two years after it first took to the Martian skies. This demo is giving a glimpse of the future of powered flight on other worlds. mars.nasa.gov/ingenuity

🎥 And…action! Check out my latest video of the #MarsHelicopter kicking up dust and taking off for Flight #47.

Ingenuity is well beyond its “warranty” at this point, but has been zipping along with me, keeping up for as long as it can as we move together uphill.

1️⃣ In satellite images, my team spied some interesting curved rock beds in this area, which may have come from a meandering river.
2️⃣ #MarsHelicopter flew over the area to scout it out.
3️⃣ Now I’m here doing science up close.

How’s that for teamwork?
#PerseveranceRover


flying is easy, landing is hard. I’m amazed at the ability of #MarsHelicopter to land autonomously without turning over on a rock #Mars

Working my way uphill, I recently spotted the #MarsHelicopter again, up ahead. Can you believe it’s flown over 6 miles (10 km), in 46 flights? Not bad for a test vehicle that was shooting for one successful hover to start with! 🤯

The #MarsHelicopter and I are closer together than we’ve been in a while, and guess who I spotted resting on a dune between flights. Can you believe Ingenuity is gearing up for Flight #39? 🤯

Making moves!

Ingenuity #MarsHelicopter recently completed Flight 36, staying above the Martian surface for just over a minute (60.52 seconds)!

The #MarsHelicopter completes the shortest flight in Martian aviation history!

Ingenuity conducted a short hover for Flight 34, popping up 16 ft (5 meters) for 18 seconds. This flight tested out the capabilities of a major software update. go.nasa.gov/3Ow8BZa
