Mars surface probes plan seismic and thermal studies
The Parker Solar Probe will image the sun yet Mars missions study the Red Planet. InSight seeks seismic activity and temp data while a heat probe and instruments measure wind pressure crust mantle and core properties. Radio science will probe Mars core via solar effects on orbit to illuminate rocky planet formation.
