Could they use it to try blow dust off the Opportunity rover's solar panels to see if it'll boot again?

- kam 6y agoNo, it's not going to land anywhere near Opportunity. https://mars.nasa.gov/resources/24729/map-of-nasas-mars-landing-sites/ https://mars.nasa.gov/resources/24729/map-of-nasas-mars-land...
- MayeulC 6y agoI guess the atmosphere would be too tenuous to try to blow dust away with it (max pressure should be a bit more than Ingenuity's mass/rotor surface, so not much). How long before a commercial autonomous helicopter-based solar panel dusting service on Mars, I wonder?
