NASA's Ingenuity Mars Helicopter is two days away from making humanity's first attempt at powered, controlled flight of an aircraft on another planet. If all proceeds as planned, the 4-pound (1.8-kg) rotorcraft is expected to take off from Mars' Jezero Crater on Sunday at 12:30 pm local Mars solar time, hovering 10 feet (3 meters) above the surface for up to 30 seconds.
