Seismic Waves Signal Martian Meteoroid Impacts

NASA/JPL-Caltech/University of Arizona enhanced image of recent impacts on Mars

NASA’s InSight Lander, roving on Mars, has picked up 4 recent meteoroid impacts due to seismic activity detected on the surface of the planet! Then the orbiter went by to confirm (and photograph) these impacts, see image above.
