Mars' Rotation Speed Accelerating, NASA Data Reveals

TL;DR Summary
NASA's InSight Lander has discovered that Mars is spinning faster and faster each year, with its days gradually growing shorter. The acceleration in spin was detected through data from InSight's RISE instrument, which also revealed that the core of Mars is likely a molten metal. The exact cause of the increasing spin is still unknown, but it could be related to changes in the planet's ice caps or core-mantle coupling. Researchers are continuing to analyze the data to uncover more insights about Mars' rotation.
