The Mars helicopter Ingenuity completed 72 flights in an atmosphere less than one percent as dense as Earth's before rotor blade damage grounded it in 2024, and JPL had originally designed it for just five test flights, and the lessons from its overperformance are shaping NASA's next generation of Mars aircraft

This is a pretty good summary of the Ingenuity helicopter that nasa placed on mars. 

It was wildly successful and continues to guide future development that can be used far away from home.
