NASA sent the InSight robot to Mars with a number of objectives in mind. Since its time on the planet, the robot has become the first Martian weatherman and done its best to jam its probe into a Mars hole that just isn’t cooperating. It’s also been listening intently to the inner workings of the planet, which is largely why it carries the “InSight’ moniker, and NASA just shared some of its biggest findings with the world.
InSight’s sensitive instruments can listen in to the rumbles happening deep below the Martian surface. Detecting so-called “Marsquakes” isn’t easy, but scientists have gotten pretty good at separating true Marsquake signals from other data that might be the result of wind or other environmental quirks.
