NASA’s Ingenuity helicopter’s navigation camera captured the spacecraft picking up a small piece of foreign object debris (FOD) on one of its landing legs. Moments later, the debris could be seen drifting away.The foreign debris on the landing leg of the helicopter is not the first that has been spotted on the red planet. Previously the Mars Perseverance rover team found an unexpected piece of trash, which is thought to have been a piece of the thermal blanket from the rocket-powered jet pack that lowered the rover onto the planet’s surface.
