Is this the first flight of this drone? Or just a random one?
Here's the great site about it's mission and stats!
This was its Ingenuity's 55th flight, originally the goal was to get "up to" 5 demo flights!
aka, we never expected to get this many flights, without killing it, and we've run out of ideas for it. "Hey, Perseverance want to see some tricks?"
