NASA’s InSight and Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter Team Up to Make Science Discovery (Media Briefing)
Two NASA missions, working in tandem, have made a science discovery on Mars.
In this briefing, science team members from NASA’s InSight Mars lander and the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) missions will explain how data and images – from the Red Planet’s surface and from above – contributed to the discovery. They will share how the two missions worked together to confirm their observations. There also will be an update on InSight’s solar energy status.
