INGENUITY


How clearly do you
see rusty sky, me?
How high will you
rise during next* flights?

We're to follow our
decent ancestors: Pioneer, Pathfinder
making, however, step further
in the planet's exploration

We can count on
Curiosity; twins have also
gathered gigabytes of very
useful knowledge; priceless heritage

We came here to
verify old hypotheses and
to formulate new ones,
especially the most profound

Ingenuity! Sharpen my sight!
Fly as high as
you'll manage! Maybe together
we'll make remarkable breakthrough…

I can't wait to learn more from Ingenuity, too. It is such an exciting device and I look forward to learning more about Mars.
