About
NASA's InSight Mars lander acquires the same reddish-brown hue as the rest of the planet in a set of images captured by the agency's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) using its High-Resolution Imagine Science Experiment (HiRISE) camera. This video shows images taken by HiRISE between Dec. 11, 2018, just a couple weeks after InSight landed on Mars, and Oct. 23, 2024. In the images, InSight often appears as a bright, blue dot due to its reflection of sunlight. A dark halo was scorched into the ground by the spacecraft's retrorocket thrusters; this halo fades away over time. Dark stripes that can be seen on the surface are tracks left by passing dust devils. Figure A is the single HiRISE image — NASA JPL · 2024.
