From the dedicated page (https://insight.oca.eu/fr/insight-home) young and old alike can take part, in French, English and German, in the space adventure on Mars, with games, quizzes and all the scientific data made available by the InSight educational team.

Younger children (primary level, Kids section) can meet up with the mascot ‘Marsty’ for weekly adventures around the planets. Teenagers (middle school level, Teens section) can take part in a daily quiz: one question a day and a riddle to solve every Thursday. Finally, older children (secondary school level, Students section) can access the mission’s scientific data and explore the internal structure of the planet Mars in close collaboration with the mission’s researchers.
