'This may be the last image I can send': NASA's InSight Mars lander posts emotional farewell.

NASA's InSight Mars lander has sent what will likely be its final communication from the Red Planet, posting a picture of its dust-covered seismometer on Twitter accompanied by a tear-jerking farewell message.

"My power's really low, so this may be the last image I can send," the message read.

"Don't worry about me though: my time here has been both productive and serene.

"If I can keep talking to my mission team, I will — but I'll be signing off here soon. Thanks for staying with me."...
Cheers.
