Ingenuity is a helicopter that is in Mars collecting data and information about the planet from above. Part of the space agency's larger Perseverance mission, Ingenuity has been tasked with going on short flights to collect additional data to help the Perseverance rover chart its path across the planet.
Ingenuity has officially flown for 102.4 minutes through its 57 flights, translating to roughly 13,130 meters traveled or just over eight miles. The helicopter has, by all measures, surpassed the expectations of researchers working on the mission. While Ingenuity has been collecting data from the air, Perseverance has been collecting soil samples on the ground.

Andrew: I think Australia is the best country in the world.
Gary: No, you're wrong. New Zealand is the best country in the world because we have great coffees, the All Blacks, a motorway which is always congested and a housing crisis.
Andrew: What's the cost of living like?
Gary: It's great. We pay world price for milk, butter and cheese even though we produce it. When it comes to pay, we get New Zealand wages.
Andrew: Sounds like Kiwi ingenuity to me.
