NASA's InSight Lander Is Already Capturing The Sights and Sounds of Mars

Description

Welcome to Mars, InSight. The Mars lander InSight survived its "7 minutes of terror" and successfully touched down on the red planet on Nov. 26. After that drama, the lander got itself up and running, snapping the picture above with its Instrument Deployment Camera (IDC). The image was shared on NASA's social media channels with a caption from InSight's perspective. "There's a quiet beauty here," someone wrote for the lander. "Looking forward to exploring my new home." This wasn't the first image taken by InSight, however; it was just the prettier of the two.
