Squyres will depart the University on Sept. 22 after over thirty years of teaching for a new voyage.
The NASA InSight lander will be providing weather reports from Mars’ surface while it gathers seismological data about Mars’ interior.
The rover was meant to last 90 days. Instead, it roamed the surface of Mars looking for signs of past life for over a decade longer.
