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.

Seconds after landing the pressurizing helium is vented from the prop system to somewhat pacify it.
I don't think it would do anything now even if you tried...and if it did do something (give that these are pulse throttled landing engines) it would probably rip the SEIS cable clean off. |
