On November 26, NASA's InSight lander, designed to reveal the mysteries of the interior of Mars, descended from space on the surface of Mars. The $ 814 million lander, developed by the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif., Has followed its scenario to the letter, resulting in the successful deployment of its critical solar panels. It was NASA's eighth successful landing in nine tries. The landing was close to the target, a vast plain of lava, and the first images of the LG revealed a seemingly ideal landscape for placing the two main instruments of the craft, a seismometer and a probe thermal. Over the next three months, scientists from InSight will slowly place both instruments on the surface, with scientific operations scheduled to begin by March 2019.
