A helicopter could potentially work on Mars, but it would face significant challenges due to the planet's thin atmosphere, which is about 1% the density of Earth's. This low density means that rotor blades would need to be larger or spin faster to generate enough lift. NASA's Ingenuity helicopter demonstrated this concept by successfully flying on Mars in 2021, proving that powered flight is possible, albeit with specialized engineering adaptations. However, sustained operations would require careful design to handle the Martian environment and atmospheric conditions.

What was the first flight to mars?
The first flight to Mars was the Mars Ingenuity helicopter carried by the Perseverance rover, which landed on Mars on February 18, 2021. The helicopter's mission was to demonstrate powered flight in the thin Martian atmosphere.
Why cant a helicopter work on the moon?
A helicopter requires air to generate lift from its rotors. Since the moon has no atmosphere, there is no air for the helicopter to push against and create lift. This makes it impossible for a traditional helicopter to work on the moon.
What were the robots names that landed on mars?
The robots that landed on Mars are named Perseverance and Ingenuity. Perseverance is a rover designed to explore the Martian surface, while Ingenuity is a small helicopter drone that accompanies Perseverance.
How would a parachute open on mars?
A parachute would open ABOVE Mars, just as it would above our planet
What is the possessive form of Mars?
In English grammar the possessive form is " Mars' " . Note the position of the apostrophe. We would say " Mars' atmosphere " .

What if Leonard da vinci made a working helicopter?
Then it would fly! unfortunatly he didn't. He did design a helicopter, but it is not believed to work.
Where do helicopter pilot work?
In their helicopter.
Can a helicopter fly on Mars?
No it can not fly on mars because theres no air for it to create lift. Helicoptors can only fly on earth and they cant fly at high altitudes.
When a train won't stop would it work if a helicopter hooked a chain to the train an pulled back?
A very larg helicopter may be able to take off with an added 50,000 lbs. of weight. A good sized modern train is going to be significantly larger than this. The helicopter's blades would likely give out as they are suddenly reversed if you just "slammed on the brakes" so to speak. If you had the helicopter going at the same speed as the train, and slowled the helicopter down as much as possible, the train would eventually stop if the locomotives were not powering the wheels (it would stop without the helicopter, too, and would be infinitely safer for the helicopter pilot). If the locomotive is powering the wheels, the helicopter's not going to do a whole lot.
Do you need a helicopter people to get a helicopter cpl?
you get the ppl first then you work up to the cpl
How do you steer a helicopter in roblox?
Usually you would have to use a helicopter tool
Can a helicopter work in space?
No, only specially designed rockets can go up into space. As soon as a helicopter reaches our atmosphere boundaries, it would burn up. Rockets on the other hand, have been specially made to hold such extreme temperatures. :)
Why cant a helicopter work on the moon?
A helicopter requires air to generate lift from its rotors. Since the moon has no atmosphere, there is no air for the helicopter to push against and create lift. This makes it impossible for a traditional helicopter to work on the moon.
Where was the first helicopter flight?
I believe that would be an experimental helicopter in Germany, around 1937.
Would a normal combustion engine work on Mars with oxygen injection?
No. The atmospheric pressure is too low. Perhaps an internal combustion engine could be designed to operate on Mars, but it would not be 'normal.'
How would you get to Mars?
you would get to mars by buying a spaceship and hiring someone to fly you to mars.
