Re: Mars: Nasa lands InSight robot to study planet's interior
A major achievement and a textbook landing despite the difficulties. It just needs to deploy its solar panels and start transmitting data. This one will remain at the landing site unlike the `Rover` series. Will be interesting to get the core samples analysed and compare the terrain with that of the Earth.Re: Mars: Nasa lands InSight robot to study planet's interior
This is excellent topical news for the producers of The First, currently running on channel 4. All about the first manned mission to Mars. Obviously that particular objective is way, way in the future. However the TV programme with Sean Penn is worth a look.
