The @LockheedMartin team got the go-ahead to begin building NASA's 2016 Mars #InSight spacecraft. Lockheed Martin has a distinct legacy of participating in nearly every NASA mission to Mars. InSight adapts a design from the successful 2007 NASA Phoenix Mars Lander.  http://www.lockheedmartin.com/us/news/press-releases/2014/may/0519-ss-insight.html.

Mars One's 2018 Mars lander will also be built by Lockheed Martin. http://www.mars-one.com/news/press-releases/lockheed-martin-and-sstl-selected-for-mars-ones-first-unmanned-mission-to-m
