The proposed Preliminary Research Aerodynamic Design to Lower Drag on Mars, (PRANDTL-m) is based on the Preliminary Research Aerodynamic Design to Lower Drag (PRANDTL-d) Flying Wing. The PRANTDL-d is seen here coming in for a landing during a flight test in June. The aerodynamics offer a solution that could lead to the first aircraft on Mars.
