# NASA plans to send a small helicopter on Mars. The US Space Research Organization will send the helicopter as a part of the next generation of a Rover installation mission in 2020.
By sending the helicopter for the first time, NASA will use such kind of Udkuzan on another planet, according to Reuters reports.
Remote controlled helicopter designed to be capable of flying in thin air of Mars. The weight of about four pounds has a twin counter-rotating blade. The body of the helicopter is equal to the size of a tennis ball. According to NASA, the blade of the helicopter will revolve around three thousand times, which is almost 10 times more than the helicopter on earth.
In a statement, Mars Helicopter Project Manager, Mimi Aung, in a NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, said in a statement: "The copters that are on the planet, their maximum height is 40, 000 feet. Mars's atmosphere is one percent higher than the Earth's atmosphere. So when our helicopter goes to the atmosphere of Mars, it is already going to be flying in height of one hundred feet above the Earth.
