Not a good day for space missions 😞

During a short up and down Flight 72, Mars helicopter Ingenuity lost its comm link with rover Perseverance. NASA engineers are working on restoring it.

This follows Flight 71 on Jan 6 which made an emergency landing 35 seconds into a 125 sec flight; apparently the relatively featureless sandy terrain proved difficult for its navigation system.

Meanwhile, Voyager 1 is still sending garbled data.

Stay tuned.

Sad news - Mars helicopter Ingenuity suffered some rotor damage during flight 72 on Jan 18 and its mission has now ended.

It will fly no more although its instruments and comm. systems are operational (the image below was sent on Jan 23).

Ingenuity gave new meaning to the word overachiever. It's legacy will live on in all future missions with helicopters.

It's possible that the damage started in flight 71, as reported by @65dBnoise .

A few years ago, you would have been considered crazy for wanting to buy a laptop. Nowadays? It’s actually a very interesting proposition!

So, today, I take a look at the @slimbook Hero, a nicely priced, powerful gaming laptop:
