Does anyone know if the image was lost due to routine reasons, or due to radiation causing a cascade failure?

- orbital-decay 5y agoSeems to be the main question with no clear answer yet. One of the purposes of Ingenuity was to demonstrate non-radhard electronics working on Mars, and a frame-dropping glitch could have happened anywhere from software to hardware.
- snewman 5y agoWhatever the issue, presumably it did not arise during testing. That seems to point toward something that would only happen on Mars... so, yeah, maybe radiation?
