Welcome to Mars!

The first NASA spacecraft to land since 2012 has touched down on the Red Planet.

Unlike its predecessor, the Curiosity Rover, the InSight vehicle will stay put for months to come. Its job: drill down through the surface, and see what's out (or down) there.



It landed this morning (11/26), after a jarring six-minute descent.
Go here for more. Good for NASA!
