\nNASA\u2019s InSight Mars lander took this final selfie on April 24, 2022, the 1,211th Martian day, or sol, of the mission. The lander\u2019s solar panels have become covered with dust since the lander touched down on Mars in November 2018, which has led to a gradual decline in its power level.

NASA will host a virtual media briefing at 2 p.m. EDT on Thursday, Oct. 27, to share new scientific findings based on observations from the agency\u2019s InSight Mars lander and Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO).<\/p>\n
Science team members from both missions will explain how data and images from each spacecraft \u2013 one on the Red Planet\u2019s surface and one orbiting above \u2013 contributed to the discovery. They will share how the two missions worked together to confirm their observations. There will also be an update on InSight\u2019s solar energy status.<\/p>\n
