9 JULY-AUGUST 2022 ASTRO PUBLISHING N ASA’s Persever- ance Mars rover and Ingenuity heli- copter were spotted on the surface of the Red Planet in this black-and-white image captured Feb. 26, 2022, by the HiRISE camera aboard NASA’s Mars Reconnaissance Or- biter. The rover is viewed here sitting on fractured bedrock of the “Máaz” for- mation before its long drive to the Jezero Crater’s delta. About 656 feet (200 meters) to the left is the Ingenuity helicopter, which is so small that it ap- pears as a mere dot on the landscape. [NASA/JPL-Caltech/ UArizona]
