Hiller Hangar Talk - "Red Planet Robots" with Jon Welte

Distant and mysterious, Mars has been the destination of over fifty robotic missions launched from Earth since 1960. Join Hiller Aviation Museum educator Jon Welte in a whirlwind journey through the history of Mars exploration and the revolution in our understanding of the Red Planet that these intrepid spacecraft have made possible, and learn about the planned February 18 landing of the newest Mars mission – including the Ingenuity helicopter, the first aircraft sent to fly in the thin, wispy Martian skies.
