NASA has unveiled its discovery on Mars as its InSight Mars Lander records a thumping marsquake of 4.7 magnitudes. The InSight Lander was sent to Mars by NASA organization three years back and the main purpose of the robot is to observe any seismic activity on Mars so that Scientists on Earth could study and research Mars' core, mantle, and crust.

InSight Mars Lander: Seismic Exploration
The recent marsquake delivered greater waves and frequency as the InSight Mars Lander was about 2000 kilometers (1200 miles) away from the site of the incident. The waves traveled such great distances and could obstruct the InSight Mars Lander's seismometer.

The InSight Mars Lander was launched by NASA on May 2018 and successfully landed on Mars in November of the same year. The probe was launched to serve for two years but the InSight Lander has served for more than three years now. However, the probe is now about to die as lots of dust has covered its solar panel due to this, it won't be able to charge itself and get completely shut down for some time.
