AeroVironment revealed Skyfall on July 24, 2025 - a detailed concept for transforming how we explore other worlds, starting with Mars. This isn’t just another space mission proposal; it’s a revolutionary approach that could change Mars exploration forever.

What is Skyfall?

Skyfall is designed to deploy six scout helicopters on Mars, where they would explore many of the sites selected by NASA and industry as top candidate landing sites for America’s first Martian astronauts. Building on Ingenuity’s success, Skyfall will scout terrain, locate resources, and support future human missions—paving the way for sustainable Martian exploration.
