NASA’s SkyFall Mars Helicopters

NASA’s SkyFall mission will build on the success of the Ingenuity Mars helicopter, which achieved the first powered, controlled flight on another planet. Using a daring mid-air deployment, SkyFall will deliver a team of next-gen Mars helicopters to scout potential landing sites for future exploration and map subsurface water ice. The mission was announced as part of the agency’s “Ignition” event on Tuesday, March 24. Learn more at
