The low-frequency rumblings were collected by the InSight lander during its first week of operations at Mars.The wind is estimated to be blowing 10 mph to 15 mph 16 kph to 24 kph.In some sense, this is what it would sound like if you were sitting on the InSight lander on Mars, Cornell Universitys Don Banfield told reporters.Scientists involved in the project agree the sound has an otherworldly quality to it.The sounds were recorded by an air pressure sensor inside the lander thats part of a weather station, as well as the seismometer on the deck of the spacecraft.The low frequencies are a result of Mars thin air density and even more so the seismometer itself its meant to detect underground seismic waves, well below the threshold of human hearing.The really unworldly sounds from InSight, meanwhile, have Banerdt imaging hes on a planet thats in some ways like the Earth, but in some ways really alien. InSight landed on Mars on Nov. 26.Its cool, its fun.
