What does "ingenuity" mean?

Ingenuity is a helicopter that is in Mars collecting data and information about the planet from above. Part of the space agency's larger Perseverance mission, Ingenuity has been tasked with going on short flights to collect additional data to help the Perseverance rover chart its path across the planet.

Ingenuity has officially flown for 102.4 minutes through its 57 flights, translating to roughly 13,130 meters traveled or just over eight miles. The helicopter has, by all measures, surpassed the expectations of researchers working on the mission. While Ingenuity has been collecting data from the air, Perseverance has been collecting soil samples on the ground.
