Spectators in Times Square watch the video board of the Nasdaq MarketSite showing the live NASA TV broadcast as NASA InSight team members celebrate inside the Mission Support Area of NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory after receiving confirmation the lander successfully touched down on the surface of Mars, Monday, Nov. 26, 2018 in Times Square in New York City. The lander sent a signal affirming a completed landing sequence at approximately 3 p.m. EST (noon PST) after touching down on the western side of a flat, smooth expanse of lava called Elysium Planitila. InSight, short for Interior Exploration using Seismic Investigations, Geodesy and Heat Transport, is a Mars lander designed to study the "inner space" of Mars: its crust, mantle, and core.

Mars InSight Landing
A NASA Mars Rover Landing banner is seen on the One Times Square video board as NASA's Perseverance rover begins its descent towards the surface of Mars, Thursday, Feb. 18, 2021 in New York City. A key objective for Perseverance’s mission on Mars is astrobiology, including the search for signs of ancient microbial life. The rover will characterize the planet’s geology and past climate, pave the way for human exploration of the Red Planet, and be the first mission to collect and cache Martian rock and regolith.
