NASA's Perseverence rover will be making Mars fall at 20:55 UK time, slightly over an hour from now. As far as I can tell, this is the official livestream.
And yes, Perseverence is carrying a tiny helicopter, to test whether powered flight is possible in the Martian atmosphere. Fun stuff!

The helicopter (named Ingenuity) is set to be deployed sometime in the next month, so I'll be keeping a close eye on that.

So we have Percy as an abbreviation for Perseverance, but what works for Ingenuity? Here's my vote:
