   NASA Mars helicopter makes history as fi

   "A small helicopter opened a new chapter of space exploration this morning    
   when it lifted off the surface of Mars, marking humankind’s first powered   
   flight    
   on another planet. The 19-inch-tall chopper called Ingenuity kicked up rusty   
   red    
   dust as it hovered about 10 feet off the ground, turned slightly, and slowly    
   touched back down. The flight lasted only about 40 seconds, but it represents    
   one of history's most audacious engineering feats."
