Over the 35 years since Viking and Apollo, despite many proposals, several mission starts, and even a couple of launches, there have been no further geophysical investigations of the interior of any planet!

Mars is Key to Understanding Early Formation of Terrestrial Planets, Including Rocky Exoplanets
Mars is uniquely well-suited to study the common processes that shape all rocky planets and govern their basic habitability.
Terrestrial planets all share a common structural framework (crust, mantle, core), which is developed very shortly after formation and which determines subsequent evolution.
Crust Questions
•! From orbital measurements we have detailed information on variations in crustal thickness (assumes uniform density).
•! But we don’t know the volume of the crust to within a factor of 2.
•! Does Mars have a layered crust? Is there a primary crust beneath the secondary veneer of basalt?
•! Is the crust a result of primary differentiation or of late-stage overturn?
•! These questions and more can be addressed by a simple thickness measurement.

Mantle Questions •! What is the actual mantle density,
which can be related to composition (e.g., Mg#, mineralogy, volatile content)?
•! To what degree is it compositionally stratified? What are the implications for mantle convection?
•! Where are the polymorphic phase transitions?
•! What is the thermal state of the mantle? How much of the heat escaping is primordial, how much is from radiogenic decay?
•! All can be addressed to a greater or lesser extent by basic seismic and heat flow observations.
14 January, 2015 5 InSight Flight School – Arcadia, CA
Core Questions •! Radius is 1600±300 km, density is
uncertain to ±15% •! Composed primarily of iron, but what
are the lighter alloying elements? •! At least the outer part appears to be
liquid; is there a solid inner core? •! How do these parameters relate to
the start and stop of the dynamo? •! Does the core radius preclude a
lower mantle perovskite transition? •! Without radius and shear measure-
ments we are stuck with a family of possible core structures, each with significantly different implications for Mars origin and history.

Auxiliary Payload Sensors •! Environmental monitoring
–!Because a seismometer measures almost EVERYTHING better than it measures seismic waves, InSight will carry a sensor package to characterize the atmospheric and electromagnetic noise environment: •! Pressure Sensor for minute barometric fluctuations •! Anemometer and thermometers for wind speed and direction, air
temperature •! Radiometer for ground
temperature •! Magnetometer for ionospheric
magnetic fluctuations

19 September, 2017 20 Exploring the Origin of Rocky Planets – The InSight Mission to Mars
Precision Radio Tracking – RISE •! First measured constraint on Mars
core size came from combining radio Doppler measurements from Viking and Mars Pathfinder, which determined spin axis directions 20 years apart –! Difference of spin axis direction gives
precession rate and hence planet’s moment of inertia
–! Constrains mean mantle density, core radius and density, although only 2 parameters are independent.
•! InSight will provide another snapshot of the axis 20 years later still, providing stronger constraints on precession.
•! In addition, nutation amplitudes can be determined after 2 years of tracking with sub-decameter precision –! Free core nutation constrains core MOI
directly, allowing separation of radius and density.

!! Heat flow provides InSight into the thermal and chemical evolution of the planet by constraining the concentration of radiogenic elements, the thermal history of the planet and the level of its geologic activity
!! Surface heat flow is measured by determining the regolith thermal conductivity, k, and the thermal gradient dT/dz:
!!"#$%&$'( !! Key challenges:
!! Measuring the thermal gradient disturbed by the annual thermal wave
!! Accurately measuring the thermal conductivity in an extremely low conductivity environment
