NASA\u2019s beleaguered InSight lander on Mars has detected a magnitude 5 \u201cmarsquake\u201d \u2014 the largest one the spacecraft has felt yet<\/a> since landing on the planet in November of 2018<\/a>. It\u2019s a major moment that comes during a fraught time for InSight, as the spacecraft\u2019s solar panels continue to gather dust that will eventually bring an end to the vehicle\u2019s life on Mars.<\/p>\n

InSight\u2019s mission on the Red Planet has been to probe the interior of Mars<\/a>, primarily by sensing for tremors from the surface. Unlike quakes here on Earth, which are typically caused by shifting tectonic plates, \u201cmarsquakes\u201d are thought to be caused by the cooling of Mars over time, which causes the planet\u2019s crust to become more brittle and crack. Equipped with an extremely sensitive seismometer built by France\u2019s space agency, InSight has detected more than 1,313 quakes since landing three and a half years ago, according to NASA.<\/p>\n
