— a 28-mile-wide impact basin that was filled with water about 3.5 billion years ago. The helicopter traveled there in the belly of the Perseverance rover in February.
Its next three flights tested the limits of how far it could fly: around 13 feet, 328 feet, and 873 feet, respectively. Each time, Ingenuity returned to its landing spot in Wright Brothers Field. Flight six marked the first time that Ingenuity flew to a spot it hadn't previously surveyed:"Airfield C." The excursion required more precise maneuvering and navigation than any of Ingenuity's previous flights. Instead of zipping back and forth in one direction, the helicopter headed southwest, readjusted to move south, then switched directions and flew northeast — a 705-foot journey in total.
The helicopter's remaining flights headed even farther south — around 348 feet during its seventh trip, and 525 during its eighth trip, which veered slightly east., since the helicopter had to cross over particularly treacherous terrain on its journey southwest.
