NASA’s Ingenuity Helicopter Sees A Wrecked Spacecraft
RJ Pierce, Tech Times 28 April 2023, 01:04 am NASA’s Ingenuity helicopter has already accomplished so much and taken more photos of the Martian surface than you can count. But this is perhaps among the coolest images it’s ever taken of the Red Planet. The image features a wreckage. But no, it’s not of an alien spacecraft. Rather, it’s the remnants of the spacecraft that delivered both Ingenuity and the Perseverance rover to Mars back in February of last year, reports Digital Trends. Here is the image taken by Ingenuity on its 26th flight above the Martian surface: (Photo : NASA JPL ) NASA JPL Photo of Mars Wreck What you can see in the image is the back shell shield that helped protect the Perseverance rover as it dropped onto Mars from orbit.
