Perseverance's Mastcam-Z Views Ingenuity's 47th Takeoff

NASA's Ingenuity Mars Helicopter is seen here at the starting point of its 47th flight on Mars. This video shows the dust initially kicked up by the helicopter's spinning rotors, as well as Ingenuity taking off, hovering, and beginning its 1,444-foot (440-meter) journey to the southwest. The rotorcraft landed – off camera – at Airfield "Iota." The video was captured by the Mastcam-Z imager aboard NASA's Perseverance rover on March 9, 2023.
