How Redmond sent a NASA mission to Mars

The mission of the NASA InSight Lander is to investigate and understand Mars' interior, as scientists want to know more about how the planet is constructed. In fact, these satellites transmitted InSight's first look at its surroundings nearly immediately after the probe safely landed.

Of course, the fact of the successful landing of the Rover can hardly be attributed to any noteworthy achievements, but it must be noted that the research Rover landed on the planet in the midst of a new dust storm, although not as strong as the former.
These instruments are created to collect data for at least the next two years in order to better understand the internal structure and geology of the Red Planet. NASA will use radio telescopes in Green Bank, West Virginia and also in Germany to listen out for radio signals from InSight. Even launching the mission and operating the spacecraft while it was traveling to Mars required the cooperation of scientists in Australia, Spain and the United States.
The area where InSight is landing is called Elysium Planitia, a particularly flat area of Mars where hazardous loose rocks are absent.

On clear days, the panels will provide InSight with between 600 and 700 watts, which is roughly enough to power a standard kitchen blender. It took eight minutes for the team back home to get the information form Mars.
The round, dome-shaped seismometer will sit on the surface and sense vibrations, or, as they're known on Mars, Marsquakes. The photo was captured after solar panels fruitfully convoluted from its sides so that its batteries can be charged and was transmitted through the Mars Odyssey orbiter that hovers around the planet and transmits the messages back to the Earth. "During that short span of time, InSight had to autonomously perform dozens of operations and do them flawlessly - and by all indications that is exactly what our spacecraft did". "Mars is hard", Thomas Zurbuchen, Nasa associate administrator for the science mission directorate, said on Sunday.
The "Send Your Name to Mars" promotion was launched by NASA in 2015 as a way of generating more public interest in space exploration. MarCO-B took an image of Mars from 4,700 miles away during its flyby at 3:10 p.m. ET after helping establish communications with mission control. They are the first CubeSats sent into deep space. The mission will last for one Martian year (the time it takes for Mars to complete one orbit of the sun), which equates to 26 Earth months.
