Ingenuity captured this photo with its RTE (Return To Earth) color camera on Flight 49 which occurred on Sol-752 (April 2, 2023). James Sorenson did some extra processing to this picture to set the framing as well as color balance it to better approximate what the scene would really look like as if someone were flying with Ingenuity at an altitude of 16 meters (52 feet) off the ground.

I just checked the image server and the helicopter has returned over 8,000 images, and there are hundreds more still on the helicopter

RTE: 419 NavCam: 7952 Total: 8371
