Funeral for the InSight rover on Mars

NASA announced the termination of the robotic vessel to Mars after that ran out of and all contact with him was lost.

NASA

After four years of exploration and discovery, NASA has put an end to the InSight robotic spacecraft that has been on the planet Mars. The robot no longer had electricity, and NASA lost contact with it for good.

NASA tried repeatedly to contact him but failed to connect and forced it to declare mission "accomplished", holding a funeral for him.

Of course, the epilogue was a foregone conclusion, since in the last few weeks the energy left in InSight was low, due to the dust that had accumulated in its solar panels. The last time the robotic craft contacted Earth, according to NASA, was on December 15.

Insight

For the story, InSight landed on the Red Planet in November 2018, as a follow-up to NASA's interplanetary exploration of Mars after of Curiosity in 2012.

For four years he explored the secrets of Mars and recorded 1.300 earthquakes and made important discoveries about the geodynamic evolution of the Red Planet.
