Robotic planetary aerial vehicles increase the range of terrain that can be examined,
compared to traditional landers and rovers, and have more near-surface capability than …

The Mars Helicopter (MH) will be flying on the NASA Mars 2020 rover mission scheduled to
launch in July of 2020. Research is being performed at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) …

The Mars rotorcraft can help the Mars rover to optimize the driving route and explore more
efficiently. However, the thin and cold Martian atmosphere can heavily increase the …

Mars has a lower atmospheric density than Earth, and the speed of sound is lower due to its
atmospheric composition and lower surface temperature. Consequently, Martian rotor …

This paper briefly reviews the literature inherent of the design of airfoil and rotorcrafts for
atmospheric flight on Mars. The interest toward the red planet exploration has considerably …

Ingenuity may be the first of many Mars aerial vehicles. Rotorcraft increase the range and
speed that can be traveled to locations of interest. This enables mission concepts previously …

Research in pursuit of rotorcraft flight on Mars has been ongoing since the late 1990s at
NASA Ames Research Center. Since then, many other organizations have also begun …

Robotic planetary aerial vehicles increase the range of terrain that can be examined,
compared to traditional landers and rovers, and have more near-surface capability than …

The Mars Helicopter (MH), launching as a part of the Mars 2020 mission, will begin a new
era of planetary exploration. Mars research has historically been conducted through landers …

Due to the Mars rotorcraft can conduct extensive surface exploration of Mars and carry
sampler for collecting samples on the Martian surface, it is gradually becoming the …
