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

I have to say, despite being labeled a boring mission. InSight has proven to be far more scientifically interesting than we expected, if not of any Martian mission. Seeing it watch its final days makes me sad, knowing it will soon join the ranks of Mars 3, Viking, Pathfinder, MER, and Phoenix as monuments to our exploration of this planet that still surprised us even in InSight's final weeks. The mole may not have worked, but the shaking sure told us Mars is still active in a way. Plus we got to act like a child playing in the sandbox for a couple Martian years which was fun!
