When we have colonized Mars, and built a fine Museum there, "the little copter that could" will be preserved in a plexiglass box for the remainder of humanity's time in the cosmos.

Now we get to look forward to Dragonfly, buzzing around Titan, hopefully in 10 years...

Some more news about the $3.35 billion dollar Dragonfly. I wonder if I will live to see this.

Probably it’s a new horizons class they tend to avoid the scope creep of other craft.

We have a very small group of people Who can achieve astonishing feats like this, and then we have the vast majority of people who conduct themselves terribly fighting wars.

That is not true. It is an exceptionally jaded view. Most follow the rules and react humanely—a small minority on the wrong side. After serving for 24 years, I have only seen a handful who crossed the line. Heck, I even treated the wounds of those who fought against us.

The helicopter is amazing. No reason to go there.

I was reading that the processing power on Ingenuity exceeded the total processing power of all other NASA missions totalled together. Not bad for a paltry $6million (I think that was the original figure).

I have at agree. Good investment in the future. I am sure we have learned a lot from this project.
