Mars is for helicopters Thomas Boutell 3/11 '19

A helicopter on Mars?

Sounds crazy - the atmosphere is so thin! - but apparently if you don't mind spending a lot of power, there's no reason in principle you can't just spin the rotor a whole lot faster. And the goal isn't efficient travel, it's to reach places a rover can't, in short hops.

Neat.
