Insight is scheduled to land on Mars in about 10 minutes. It will measure Mars seismic activity and study its core.It is accompanied also by two separate communications satellites. It's on C-SPAN. Here's a link.

That would be perfect Northeast. It takes what, three-to-four years to get there. If he went, he'd be gone for a long time.

Might be longer. He will change flights at least three times!

Bad news, guys. The next suitable Earth-Mars launch window does not occur until 2020. So, this means that the Eskimo will be batting in the ninth position for two years. :L
