An aircraft has a propulsion unit and a fuselage unit. The propulsion unit has a first rotor for providing a propulsion force on the aircraft. The fuselage unit extends along a rotation axis of the first rotor and has a rotationally symmetrical shape with respect to the rotation axis of the first rotor. The fuselage unit has a suspension at a first end by which the fuselage unit is coupled to the first rotor so that the fuselage unit is spaced apart from the first rotor along the rotation axis. A detection unit for the detection of environmental information is provided in the area of a second end of the fuselage unit. The propulsion unit is designed to keep the aircraft in a hovering flight condition so that a relative position of the aircraft with respect to a reference point on the Earth's surface remains unchanged.
