InSight’s (Interior Exploration using Seismic Investigations, Geodesy and Heat Transport) Principal Investigator W. Bruce Banerdt presents information on the latest findings from InSight to Kennedy Space Center employees on March 13, 2019, at the Florida spaceport’s Space Station Processing Facility Conference Center. InSight is a NASA Discovery Program mission that placed a single geophysical lander on Mars to study the Red Planet’s deep interior and will ultimately provide a better understanding of the processes that shaped the rocky planets of the inner solar system, including Earth. It was the first launch to Mars from the West Coast, lifting off from Vandenberg Air Force Base in California on May 5, 2018. The lander touched down on Mars on Nov. 26, 2018.
