Insight: Path to hearth of Mars

02/05/2018

   Glossary:

 On May 5, the NASA mission will study the activity of the interior of Mars.  

Summary:

The mission of NASA to Mars Insight was made on May 5, and it will be the first to know what the center of Mars is like. InSight (Interior Exploration using Seismic Investigations, Geodesy and Heat Transport), measuring its heat and listening to the 'marsquakes', something similar to earthquakes on Earth. It will use the seismic waves of the 'marsquakes' to develop a map of the deep interior of the planet. Knowing how the creation of Mars was will help us to know how other rocky planets were created, including Earth.
Among the scientific instruments on board is TWINS, a Spanish environmental station that will monitor the environmental conditions in the landing zone continuously during the 2 years that the mission is believed to last.

Personal opinion:

In my opinion it is a mission that will make a change in the history of the earth for the simple reason that we can study much more thoroughly a planet that has always been very close to us (respectively) which we still do not know completely, besides that This mission apart from making us see how Mars is will help us to know more about our Earth.
