InSight is a robotic Mars lander manufactured in the 2010s which was originally planned for launch in March 2016. The name is a backronym for Interior Exploration using Seismic Investigations, Geodesy and Heat Transport. Due to the failure of its SEIS instrument prior to launch, NASA announced in December 2015 that the mission had been postponed for a minimum of two years.

• the power of acute observation and deduction, penetration, discernment, perception called intellection or noesis
• an understanding of cause and effect based on identification of relationships and behaviors within a model, context, or scenario (see artificial intelligence)
