Finally, on Sol 1059, #Ingenuity turned its blades to a new position, and it seems most (or all) of the 4th blade is missing.

And that there in the red circle may be the missing (part of) blade. @stim3on spotted that 10 days earlier:

@65dBnoise Wow, those new images are pretty decisive!

I guess I called it... 😬

@stim3on
Yeah 👍 , you saw that in the missing darkness of a shadow, but your spotting of that piece of blade 15m away was actually the hard evidence we needed, which shed light in the hidden shadow 😀
