Watch the Ingenuity helicopter's first flight on Mars 

A) Yes! Some other planets and moons have denser atmospheres, ie Titan, Jupiter, Venus. The aircraft will have to be custom designed for each environment. B) Maybe, but that's at least 50 years down the line...

Or C) wake up and understand that this was all recorded on earth.

@@lactate and let me guess, the earth is flat?

How is it in space, when it's in the atmosphere of a planet?

Perseverance is the rover ingenuity is the aircraft

It truly is!

@@ScarlettM literally everything is in space! In layman's terms space is sometimes equivalent to the heavens or everything beyond Earth's atmosphere.

its actually a nuclear powered aircraft carrier.

You are wrong. The Indian Prime Minister has already been to Mars way before this drone flying....

and there is no actual video

No Dust Cloud from rotor wash?

@@0truckmafk its just an animation . there is no actual video or even images

When one hears the word " Drone " it kinda makes you sleepy! This one woke up & woke up the whole World 🌞

Yes mate, yes it is!

What was her response?

@@nikkiholmes2634 She agreed, Nikki. To be able to get video from a planet MILLIONS of miles away and watch from the comfort of my couch....well....THAT'S JUST FREAKIN' AMAZIN' !!!! I am old enough to tell you that I watched as Neil Armstrong stepped on the moon.( The most awesome thing humans have done in my lifetime...so far.) But these missions to Mars are mind-blowing.

What makes you think this is real?

@@jaynenord101 Do you think the earth is flat too when all planets observable with consumer grade telescopes are round???

so they have data to build a new high tech flying rover amazing

Sadly, the Wright brothers hugely stifled the development of aviation after their initial great successes, and tied up future aviation development in multiple lawsuits, setting progress back for years. If it were "up to them", most of the developments we've seen in aviation would likely not have happened.

@@markp.7478 -It’s true that one of the brothers was a good businessman protecting their inventions and patents by a lawsuit that last a few years. Although, in no way did they attempt nor want to stifle aviation achievement by others, that did not tread on their patents. The brothers were two of many that were testing and achieving initial powered man flights, in the states as well as overseas. From those early times, invention of non-glider type air planes took off, leaving theirs in the dust. They also chose not to make certain improvements or major modifications to their Model C that led the Army to discontinue use of theirs and the Curtiss models. This allowed others to enjoy government contracts. They, by no means, had a controlling stake in these other inventions. I’m sure they had no ill will towards the parallel advancement that brought about more advanced flying machines, as opposed to their glider based machines. They did not invent many things that made flight possible, like the airfoil, propeller nor the notion of flight itself. They just spent their fortune and years researching and developing a few key ideas that made powered flight attainable and more controllable via their researched methods and inventions. Associated people and other groups, with less stake in these developments, attempted (and were succeeding) to monopolize on these items. They built and were selling their own version of these flying machines and only after the lawsuits began did they slightly modify their design to attempt to avoid patent infringement. Some were even successful in being awarded a government contract at the same time as the Wright company. Why wouldn’t they fight these people in court? Once you start down that path, it’s one legal fight after another. Soon you get poorly viewed upon for attempting to protect your own inventions and company interest. How unfortunate is that for a company that achieve so much, in such a short amount of time, relatively speaking.

Imagine what we would achieve in another 118 years. Or even less.

Yes but we've also regressed. 118 years ago jazz was the popular form of music, and now it's mumble rap and dubstep. We may hit warp speed in another 118 years but we won't have a good soundtrack for the journey, that's for sure.

@@rumrunner8019 haha so very true

Okay, but I'm one who thinks the Wright Brothers flight was faked. It was done in a giant stage studio on an air force base in Nevada rather than on some North Carolina beach (using those thin cables you can't see in the film, of course)!

Itll keep getting faster and faster , our tech is always improving

Thank you

Fake

why RIP bro?

@@abhinavsharma8963 It broke.

It is still alive though even though it cannot fly now. It takes temperature reading and one photo each day and saves to memory. They estimate the potential for 20 years of accumulated data to stored for later recovery by humans as long as it stays upright for charging the battery.

@@gavincurtis just realized even though it can't fly it can still use the rotor blades to knock sand off its solar panels. Probably adds a lot of lifespan to it

I will be your first comment entertainer tell me about your dreams.........

Gravity on Mars is 40% that of Earth, so that helps.

It rose very quickly and took off smoothly. It was hovering steadily, and didn't seem like 1/100th of an atmosphere. It looks like there is more atmospheric pressure.

@MGTOW Gamer it's not that difficult to understand, is it?

@MGTOW Gamer exactly what expected from someone named MGTOW Gamer. Well then. Lift is the force that makes birds, airplanes and helicopters able to fly. It depends on the density of the fluid (and air is a fluid), the speed and the area. Air density in Mars is much, much smaller than the Earth. If I remember correctly, it's about 1%, but I might be wrong about that. Since air density is smaller (which is the same as saying that the atmosphere is thinner), lift is weaker, so it's harder to fly something in Mars than it is in Earth. People at NASA managed to do it, so that's what the commenter found amazing. Is everything clear?

She said Mars atmosphere is only 1% that of earth's. That's wrong. Closer to 1/3..

Thanks for your comments 👋👋

My family and I visited Kitty Hawk NC last summer. Then and now is an amazing feat.

@@cin806 Yeah. I'm not talking abt Ingenuity in particular, rather the whole set of developments that r happening.

@@cin806 This is particularly significant in terms of cost. Exploration can now be done on the cheap and much faster. More importantly, NASA has a fantastic track record with these rovers. Risk has plummeted. NASA has refined their R&D to such a degree that confidence in proposed projects is very high. That's important, again, for funding. That's an $85 million piece of equipment. Subsequent versions will be much cheaper and a regular component of future missions to Mars and other bodies. This is a very big deal.

great job NASA

Thanks for your comments

You don’t seriously believe this do you😂🤣😂

@@jaynenord101 Yeah, Jayne. A bit of hyperbole on his part. They've "earned their keep" many, many times.

@@hotsauce7709 Do you believe this is really on Mars?

@@jaynenord101 Oh, for god's sake, of course I do! Occam's Razor. The most obvious and most logical answer is almost always the correct one. We've been to Mars many times. Also, the Moon, Venus, orbited Saturn and flew by Jupiter. Even got a quick flyby of Pluto. Why do you deniers keep insisting we can't do this? Is your knowledge of science and technology so primative that it is just beyond your ability to understand? The technology being used to do this is exactly the same as the technology you use every day. It's not all that special. Sure, the computers are more powerful than a laptop...but there are more powerful ones in business and research. The radio technology and cameras and sensors are all stuff we have now in everyday life. The distances are far greater and the long times it takes to accomplish these projects reflect that. The immense difficulty it takes to blast a relatively small object millions of miles to send back only a tiny bit of data stretches our best efforts to the end. But it's not magic. I'd think if we were faking it we'd CGI some more spectacular results. Remember the Mars probe that crashed and did nothing? The different rovers that just died? CGI stuff doesn't have to die.

@@hotsauce7709 people say occam's razor like that really covers everything.

But we'll do it 🔥

The problem is that this is all fakeeee.

@@ainsmas361no it aint dawg

You are correct. I'd imagine they send the flight-path and parameters to the rover as a script, which then locally transmits it to Inguinity.

The black & white camera on Ingenuity is used for navigation so I think it is very fast.

Mhm 🤡 Resolution too low to capture dust flying though?!? 🤔

@@adamatlas1113 That's not what I'm talking about. Go study photography.

Curiosity does not have solar panels.

It might have been packed down dust.

A 1 percent atmosphere rotor wash doesn't seem to move much.

@@James-xn1oe it's a secret satanic cult thing.

There was a lot of dust during landing of Perseverance. It may be that the specific area that Ingenuity was dropped doesn't have as much surface dust. And of course, the atmosphere is super thin and gravity is 1/3 of Earth's, so the interaction of rotor blades and ground may be slightly different than on Earth.

Some people will later complain about some beaten pixel in the video that wasn't the right colour or something...

Besides the thin atmosphere and the possibility of not much dust at this particular site, the rover was over 200ft away. The cameras may not have the resolution to capture dust particles fron that distance.

@@brentwalker3300 That's it 🤡 Smartass!

@@beta_cygni1950 Yah, right... Unfortunately, NASA can't afford to install a full HD cam like the one on your phone?!? 🤔

please check all the facts before judging. The Helicopter only send through some BW-pictures due to reasons of saving power ... as Mrs Reilly also explained!

The heli's belly camera is a low res navigation camera only. Not intended to take HD pictures.

@@emanuelecarriero2132 why do you want to run from facts?

@@sitting_nut what facts? You have a theory that they didnt go to mars for some weird reason. A quick google search into why they dont send videos will give you a quick answer. Simply search up “why doesnt nasa send videos from mars” 👍👏

@@emanuelecarriero2132 who said anything about not going mars ? are you having trouble with basic reading comprehension? btw there is no technologically valid reason why they shouldn't have video or at least images by now. they don't have them not because they didn't go to mars, but because they are incompetent and wasteful and using long outdated technology . instead they have a useless control room of people celebrating some vague moment, when this flight does not require a control room of people and is mostly automated. and there is no one precise moment to celebrate. all the videos and animations here are merely pr and hype, to beg money from government. this rather simple automated drone like flight took place, but it was made possible by coders long before this, and not some control room of people celebrating on cue to camera. face the facts!
