Insight’s purpose is to learn more about Mars’ interior in order to give scientists a better idea of how the planet was shaped. If scientists are able to acquire knowledge on that subject then they’ll better understand why rocky planets form, and subsequently may be able to learn which of those planets have a greater chance of supporting life. This past Thursday, Nasa revealed that Insight’s seismometer detected “two sizeable quakes”. Those happened on March 7th and 18th, in an area called Cerberus Fossae, which is where two previous quakes had occurred.

The $850 million robotic geophysicist InSight lander touched down on Mars in November 2018 on a mission designed to help scientists better understand the interior of the Red Planet, as its seismometer was to feel for seismic waves, or marsquakes .
NASA’s Insight lander on Mars has detected intriguing rumblings emanating from the interior of the Red Planet, prompting scientists to suggest a flurry of theories explaining the seismic events.
The seismometer of the stationary probe designed to study the interior of the Red Planet detected the two new “marsquakes” on 7 March and 18 March, both in a region called Cerberus Fossae where two previous similar rumblings were observed by th
