You can hear the first 'Marsquake' that was detected by NASA.
The finding "officially kicks off a new field: Martian seismology!," said Bruce Banerdt of NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory.
NASA said this is the first trembling that appears to have come from inside the planet, as opposed to being caused by forces above the surface, such as wind. The sound was detected by NASA's Insight Lander, a robot spacecraft that's now stitting on the Martian surface. The sound was detected on April 6, 2019.
Three distinct kinds of sounds can be heard, all of them detected as ground vibrations by the spacecraft's seismometer: noise from Martian wind, the quake itself, and the spacecraft's robotic arm as it moves to take pictures. An artist's rendering made available by NASA shows an illustration of NASA's InSight lander probing the "Inner Space" of Mars. The InSight, a lander dedicated to studying the deep interior of the planet, is the first mission ever to do so.
