NASA's InSight lander has taken what may be its ... gathered information on weather conditions, investigated Mars' liquid core, and helped researchers map the planet's interior geology.

The InSight lander's Seismic Experiment for the Interior Structure (SEIS) instrument observed seismic waves generated by Marsquakes and meteorite impacts to create a map of the planet's interior.

Wind vibrations measured by NASA’s InSight mission seismometer are mapped into wind speed and direction to detect major annual weather patterns and open new possibilities for planetary instrumentation ...

The InSight lander has successfully touched down on Mars, beginning a two-year mission to peer deep inside the red planet's interior. Technicians and engineers inspect the heat shield for the ...

InSight will effectively be able to map the Martian interior as these quakes hit. The lander is also expected to piece together the history of Mars formed by studying its interior, information ...

NASA's $850 million InSight Lander is the first designed to study the interior structure of Mars. Until now, NASA's landers mainly focused on exploring Mars' surface for signs of potential life.

Using seismic data from NASA’s InSight lander, researchers Ikuo Katayama ... “Many studies suggest the presence of water on ancient Mars billions of years ago,” Katayama said.

The InSight lander will carry two major experiments, the Heat Flow and Physical Properties Probe (HP 3) and the Seismic Experiment for Interior Structure (SEIS), to Mars, where a robotic arm will ...

Persuasive new evidence supporting the possibility of liquid water deep underground on Mars has come to light in a new analysis of seismic data from NASA's InSight lander. In 2024, researchers ...

and provided to NASA for use on the InSight lander. The small, 35 centimeter-long probe was designed to burrow as deep as 5 meters (16 feet) below the surface of Mars while connected to a tether ...
