Mars Ingenuity Phones Home

JoeRobe writes: After 63 days of silence Ingenuity helicopter on Mars has communicated with the Perseverance rover. This blackout was anticipated, as the helicopter had landed ahead of the rover in a position that blocked communication between them. Once the rover maneuvered into a better position it quickly re-established comms. The duo will continue exploring together, with the potential for more blackouts in the rugged Jezero crater.
