Below is some nice footage of the lithe lil' copter's last Martian flight.
. . .The Ingenuity Mars Helicopter’s black-and-white navigation camera has provided dramatic video of its record-breaking 25th flight, which took place on April 8. Covering a distance of 2,310 feet (704 meters) at a speed of 12 mph (5.5 meters per second), it was the Red Planet rotorcraft’s longest and fastest flight to date. (Ingenuity is currently preparing for its 29th flight.)
“For our record-breaking flight, Ingenuity’s downward-looking navigation camera provided us with a breathtaking sense of what it would feel like gliding 33 feet above the surface of Mars at 12 miles per hour,” said Ingenuity team lead Teddy Tzanetos of NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Southern California.
The first frame of the video clip begins about one second into the flight. After reaching an altitude of 33 feet (10 meters), the helicopter heads southwest, accelerating to its maximum speed in less than three seconds. The rotorcraft first flies over a group of sand ripples then, about halfway through the video, several rock fields. Finally, relatively flat and featureless terrain appears below, providing a good landing spot. The video of the 161.3-second flight is [shown at approximately 5X speed, reducing it to less than 35 seconds]. . . .
Now you know. Be excellent to one another. . . onward, smiling!

did we expect otherwise???
At least you and I certainly did not.
Team Durham repeatedly directly violated USDC Judge Cooper's explicit written orders, not to try to read into the record various "double hearsay" emails. . . but then went on to do so. Cheeky; drawing rebukes and admonishments from the judge, to the jury to "ignore that last bit".
And at least once, this all happened not ten minutes after being ordered not to try it again, by the able Judge Cooper.
Making it worse, the Durham team was offering these double hearsay emails for the "truth of the matters asserted" in the hearsay emails. Stunning.
That was the "tell" -- that Durham could not even prove a single low level instance of untruths, to the FBI, from an ostensibly HRC affiliated lawyer.
Also (hilariously!), we see that the jury while deliberating Friday specifically asked to see the cab receipt exhibits from trial -- from which it was clear that Sussmann DID NOT bill HRC's campaign or her personally, for the cab rides over to meet with the FBI.
No lawyer working for a paying client would let his/her firm eat those bills.
So the jury said... nope. Not proved.
Sit down, Durham.
He took longer than Mueller by over a year, and spent far more, to come up completely dry, on all he could find -- a single false statement charge.
By way of contrast, Mueller secured dozens of felony convictions, including Manafort, Flynn and Stone (each later pardoned by Tangerine).
And all much closer to 45, than Sussmann ever weas to the powers running the HRC campaign.
Now I'll hush (I guess I'm pretty adamant. . . about this!).
But it does show. . . juries are. . . wise.
Namaste. . . .
