The images were taken during Ingenuity's third flight on April 25. They show the rover, as well as the surface of the Red Planet.

The Ingenuity helicopter took new photos of Mars during the third flight. The first photo was taken at an altitude of five meters and at a distance of 85 meters from the Perseverance rover. The rover is visible in the upper-left corner.

The helicopter also took black-and-white images using the navigation system cameras. In this photo, you can see the surface of the Red Planet and the shadow of the aircraft. In addition, NASA has published two new photos taken during the second flight on April 22.

During the third flight, as in the first two, Ingenuity rose to a height of five meters. But this time the machine flew faster: if earlier it was moving at a speed of half a meter per second, now it has accelerated to two meters per second. Ingenuity flew 50 meters to the north, and then returned to the landing pad. In total, he covered 100 meters. The flight lasted 80 seconds.

Another helicopter shot a video of the third flight, which will show most of the journey. Scientists are expected to receive the video in the coming days.
