"ISRO's Upcoming Mars Mission to Include Lander, Helicopter, Rover, and Drone: Reports"
ISRO is reportedly planning to send a lander with a rover and a rotocopter (helicopter) to Mars, similar to NASA's Ingenuity quadcopter. The rotocopter, still in the conceptual stage, is expected to carry an instrument suite named the Martian Boundary Layer Explorer (Marble) for aerial exploration of Mars, conducting vertical profiling of atmospheric factors and in-situ measurements within the near-surface boundary layers. This mission aims to enhance understanding of Martian weather patterns and historical climate, providing crucial data for future exploration missions.
