Congratulations to the InSight team on a successful landing! We'll discuss the remainder of the mission here.

Just a new thought here. Most of us have heard the "sound" of winds moving around insights solar panels audio recorded by the seismometer I think.
Could these vibrations transfer to the ground and hinder the supper sensitive seismometers work? |

They said it was unlikely, that's why they want it on the ground, also they would be able to characterise the noise of the vehicle and be able to ignore or recognise it during the long silent listening phase, if it did indeed transfer. |

Also remember that the seismometer will have a 'hat' installed over it, and minimizing wind vibration is one of the reasons for that. -------------------- A few will take this knowledge and use this power of a dream realized as a force for change, an impetus for further discovery to make less ancient dreams real.
