00:03NASA's InSight lander has been really productive lately.
00:06Since landing back in 2018, it has captured thousands of seismic events on Mars, literally
00:11changing everything we thought we knew about the inner workings of the planet.
00:14Even recently capturing data on the largest Mars quake ever recorded, one that lasted
00:19for an insane 10 hours and had more energy than all of the other quakes it's detected
00:23combined.
00:24But now it might be time to say goodbye, as dust and debris are now completely covering
00:28the device's solar panels, and InSight is quickly losing power.
00:31This photo was recently shared via the InSight lander's official Twitter page, with the lander
00:35writing in the first person, quote,
00:37My power's really low, so this may be the last image I can send.
00:40Don't worry about me though, my time here has been both productive and serene.
00:44If I can keep talking to my mission team I will, but I'll be signing off here soon, thanks
00:48for staying with me.
00:49Still, the lander has far outlived its mission parameters.
00:52It was supposed to last just two years, capturing data and giving us a better idea of what's
00:57going on under the Martian crust.
00:58Altogether, the brave little lander has been set up on the red planet, sending back data
01:02to NASA scientists for four years and twenty-three days so far.
