Online news write About the last and partly touching image message of Nasa’s InSight probe, which it was still able to send with its last “strength”.
NASA’s InSight program posted the image on its Twitter account, which has nearly 800,000 followers. Next to the image sent by the sonar, it wrote a tender message.
– My battery is really low, so this might well be the last picture I can send. Don’t worry about me though. My time here has been productive and peaceful. I will continue to communicate with my work group if I can. Anyway, my time here is coming to an end soon. Thank you for sharing the journey with me.

The probe landed on the surface of Mars in November 2018. The journey to the surface of the planet took more than seven months. The purpose of the probe was to collect information from the surface of the planet as well as its interior. The probe measures, among other things, the planet’s seismic activity and temperature fluctuations. It also sends footage to Earth.
