#Flight61 was a popup one, where #Ingenuity took off, flew vertically to a record 24m, and landed on the same spot.
This image was captured on the ground, 5 sols after that flight and 2 sols before #Flight62. Notice the stony foreground, and the mark one foot left on the sand.

This is what #Ingenuity saw from a 24m altitude when it flew its #Flight61 yestersol (if it did; no image confirmation yet)
Note: While NASA's announcements of #MarsHelicopter flights contain numbers seemingly "precise" to fractions of seconds or meters, they fail to correctly specify date/time (is it EST, PST, UT?) or Sol.
