The NASA Mars helicopter's first flight was postponed again, and a new date will be set next week

On April 14th, on Tuesday, local time, NASA announced that the first flight of the "Wit" helicopter on Mars was postponed for the second time due to the need to reinstall its flight control software to repair the computer that appeared before Software failure.

The first flight to Mars of the Gizwits was originally scheduled to take place on April 11, but NASA found a problem with the aircraft's rotor during previous tests, so the test flight was postponed to the 14th. NASA announced on Tuesday that after analyzing the problem, it decided to postpone the first flight again.


The agency tweeted: “The Gizwits is currently in good condition, and its important systems such as power and communication are operating normally, but it needs to update its flight software. Although the development of the software is simple, verification and installation will take time. We will be in next week. Confirm the new flight date."


NASA officials said: "We believe that the mission team is capable of overcoming this challenge and preparing for the first historic controlled powered flight of WIT on another planet."
