Breathable Oxygen Extracted by NASA Out of Mars’ Thin Air

NASA announced that the Mars Ingenuity helicopter had completed its second groundbreaking flight after making history earlier this week with the first powered flight on another earth.

The first oxygen conversion run took place only one day after NASA successfully took off and landed a miniature robot helicopter on Mars, making history the first controlled powered flight by an aircraft on another earth.

The twin-rotor chopper called Ingenuity, like MOXIE, hitched a ride to Mars with Perseverance, whose primary goal is to look for fossilized remains of ancient microbes that could have thrived billions of years ago on Mars.
