Mars
The humans managed to transport a helicopter weighing 1.8 kg to the red planet. The journey there lasted six and half months. The helicopter is able to fly there, even though the atmosphere on Mars has a pressure of only 680 Pa. To compare, air as thin as this one occurs at the altitude of 22 km on Earth.
- On Earth, the record for the highest helicopter flight is 12.4 km.
