#seismometer
InSight:Sol 23 images are here, nothing dramatically new today, but the 4th photo shows just how shiny the seismometer can be when the sun hits it just right, while photos 1 & 3 show that while InSight didn’t get a cute sundial, you could probably tell time on Mars by watching the shadows of instruments’ ribbon cables.

InSight:Sol 22 was seismometer deployment day, and it looks like round 1 of the robo-claw game went as planned. Once they’re sure the seismometer’s in a good location, they’ll put the wind shield over it (it’s the white curved thing behind the seismometer in a few of the photos), and after that it’ll be time to deploy the heat probe and let it start digging.
