DESCRIPTION:NASA’s InSight lander deployed the first seismic station to 
 the surface of Mars in 2018. The dataset collected over the next four year
 s took us on a journey of discovery – from tiny quakes close to the land
 er to quakes on the opposite side of the planet\; meteorite impacts and du
 st devils\; solar panel shaking and hammering. We saw it all! In this talk
  I’ll walk you through the highs and lows of the mission and the seismic
  dataset: from launch to final transmission through deployment of the seis
 mometer\, first quake detection\, determination of the core size\, meteori
 te detection\, core composition\, surface waves\, the biggest quake observ
 ed\, and the last quake recorded. We’ll discover how one seismometer exp
 anded our understanding of the composition and evolution of the red planet
 \, look at some amazing images\, and explore what more we can do with the 
 dataset.
