Summary
| Description | As NASA's Ingenuity Mars helicopter makes progress towards its first test flight, the Mars 2020 Perseverance rover has begun preparing to test the MOXIE technology demonstration that converts Martian air into oxygen, and investigating some nearby rocks with its science instruments. This video provides a mission update from Ingenuity Chief Engineer Bob Balaram, and Perseverance Project Scientist Ken Farley. Ingenuity is the first aircraft on Mars and will attempt the first powered, controlled flight on another planet. If Ingenuity succeeds, future Mars exploration could include an aerial dimension.
