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

Looks like it may be rotating back out this time (becoming more horizontal), rather than heading in ?

Looks like it may be rotating back out this time (becoming more horizontal), rather than heading in ? Bonjour, "Depth is determined by a tether length measurement device (TLM) that monitors the amount of tether extracted from the support structure and a tiltmeter (STATIL) that measures the angle of the Mole axis to the local gravity vector." (From a paper by Tilman Spohn). Long time ago, I think I read somewhere that by its design the mole would have the ability after it has been tilted by some obstacle and by regaining conditions favourable to its progression, to right its axis of penetration towards the vertical. To be checked. |
