Yeah, JPL is especially good at managing expectations. Everything they do lasts years longer than advertised, and clearly that's not accidental.

Still, this one really did feel like an experiment, and it's pretty cool that they got so much out of it. I'm looking forward to seeing what the next Martian helicopter looks like.
