NASA has been working on a potential unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) which could guard Mars and action or move around easily than the grounded rovers that currently populate the Red Planet. A NASA representative recently explained that a drone which could navigate in Mars thin atmosphere is being tested.

“The system has been built, it’s been ground tested, and then we put it into a chamber that was backfilled at Mars atmosphere (conditions). Some parts were removed from the helicopter to compensate for the 1g (gravity) field to get the proper relationship of mass and acceleration of Mars, and we did controlled takeoffs, slewing, translations, hovers and controlled landings in the chamber. We’ve done that multiple times,” said Jim Watzin, the Director of NASA’s robotic Mars exploration program.
