Probably the last picture of the Mars lander “Insight”

Washington (dpa) – . After around four years on Mars, NASA’s “Insight” lander has sent its possibly last image to earth. “I’m almost out of power, that might be the last picture I can send,” said Tuesday night on the Twitter channel of the lander operated by NASA. The image shows the area of ​​Martian soil directly in front of the lander. NASA had already declared in November that “Insight” would only have energy for a few weeks. The reason for this is the dust from the Red Planet, which is becoming thicker and thicker on the solar modules.
