NASA's Imagery has come down from Mars, capturing a recent flight in which the rotorcraft flew farther and faster than ever before. Covering a distance of 704 meters at a speed of 5.5 meters per second, it was the Red Planet rotorcraft's longest and fastest flight to date. Mission controllers recently lost communication with Ingenuity after the helicopter entered a low-power state. Now that the rotorcraft is back in contact and getting adequate energy from its solar array to charge its six lithium-ion batteries, the team is looking forward to its next flight on Mars.
