Mars Ingenuity Helicopter
What do you know about Helicopters?
What Questions do you have about Helicopters?
How do Helicopter Fly How do Helicopter Fly Rotary blades are slightly angled so they can push against the air and lift the helicopter off the ground. What else rotates and pushes against the air? Lift Gravity

Ingenuity First Flight Ingenuity First Flight
Choose your Challenge Choose your Challenge 1. How can you make their blades turn faster or slower? 2. How can you make the blades turn in the opposite direction? 3. How does a different kind of paper affect performance? 4. How big of a helicopter can you make that will still work? 5. How small of a helicopter can you make that will still work? 6. How do helicopters with different blade sizes compare in performance? What size works best? How do you define "best performance"?
Discussion Discussion 1. Which helicopters reach the ground sooner: those that rotate faster or slower? 2. How does the speed of rotation affect the flight of a real helicopter? How might this be important when designing a helicopter for Mars? 3. How was your experience designing and testing a paper helicopter similar to how NASA engineers designed and tested the Ingenuity Mars helicopter?
