#Ingenuity is seen here sticking its solar panel above the sandy waves of #ValinorHills in this image from Sol 1152 received today. While the solar panel of the #MarsHelicopter may still be visible from the rover at its present location on Sol 1159, it will soon disappear when #Perseverance clears the ripples it's facing on its way northwest to Bright Angel.
The Ingenuity team has nicknamed the spot where the helicopter completed its final flight “Valinor Hills” after the fictional location in J.R.R. Tolkien’s fantasy novels, which include “The Lord of the Rings” trilogy.
a new view of Valinor Hills, where Ingenuity is resting, from a different perspective. Can you spot the little copter? It's barely visible, just a tiny speck by the ridge of a dune.
NASA's Mars #Perseverance#rover acquired this image on Feb. 15, 2024 (Sol 1063), using its onboard Left Navigation Camera (Navcam). The camera is located high on the rover's mast and aids in driving.
