"Ingenuity Mars Helicopter Successfully Establishes Communication with NASA"

NASA's Ingenuity Mars Helicopter successfully completed its 52nd flight, despite a temporary loss of communication with mission controllers. The communications blackout occurred as the helicopter descended towards the surface due to a hill blocking the signal between the helicopter and the Perseverance rover. Contact was re-established on June 28 when the rover crested the hill. The flight aimed to reposition the helicopter and capture images of the Martian surface for the rover's science team.
