Learning from Ingenuity helicopter's crash landing on Mars

The First Helicopter Crash on Mars: NASA Pinpoints What Went Wrong During Ingenuity’s Final Flight
Ingenuity ultimately operated for nearly three years and performed 72 flights over that span. On its final flight, the helicopter climbed to 40 feet (12 meters) above the Martian surface, but after 32 seconds, the chopper was back on the ground and communications had stopped.
After crashing on Mars, NASA's Ingenuity helicopter could live on as a weather station for 20 years
Ingenuity may never fly above the surface of Mars again, but the downed helicopter is otherwise healthy and could serve as a weather station for decades, JPL says.
Lessons learned from Ingenuity Mars helicopter will play into designs for follow-on craft
Engineers now say they understand the most likely cause of the Ingenuity helicopter's crash landing on Mars earlier this year.
NASA explains why Mars helicopter Ingenuity crashed on its 72nd flight
The first aircraft to achieve a powered, controlled flight on another planet, NASA’s Ingenuity helicopter, crashed on Mars 11 months ago when its navigation system became befuddled by a bland, featureless stretch of terrain and slammed so hard into the Martian surface that the tips of its rotor blades snapped.
NASA video shows its next Martian helicopter soaring over Mars
After over 70 flights, the Ingenuity helicopter — the first craft to ever make a powered, controlled flight on another planet — crashed in the Martian dunes in January 2024. But its unexpected achievement (engineers hoped it might make five flights) has prompted the conceptual design and planning for what the agency calls its "Mars Chopper."
