NASA’s history-making Ingenuity Mars Helicopter has ended its mission at the Red Planet after surpassing expectations and making dozens more flights than planned. While the helicopter remains upright and in communication with ground controllers, imagery of its Jan. 18 flight sent to Earth this week indicates that one or more of its rotor blades sustained damage during landing and it is no longer capable of flight. Originally designed as a technology demonstration to perform five experimental test flights in a 30 day period, this first aircraft to fly on another world has operated from the Martian surface for almost three years, performed 72 flights, and has flown more than 14 times farther than originally planned.
