While NASA's Perseverance Rover and Ingenuity Mars Helicopter are hard at work exploring Mars, their twins models are here in Chicago.

Percy is a spitting image of Perseverance and Ginny is a genuine replica of Ingenuity. 

They are in town as part of a traveling exhibition courtesy of NASA. 

The models will be on display until January.
