Great news! How soon before you can take temperature readings?
-
We can measure the temperature of the mole right now. The first sensor on the science tether is about 10 cm behind the mole's back cap. But to really get our desired science data the mole needs to get to 2.5 - 3 meters deep at a minimum... so it's got a ways to go.

How fast does the mole dig? Seems like it’s pretty slow?
-
So far around 0.1 mm / stroke. It's speed depends entirely on the properties of the regolith it's digging into... and that's part of the fun of doing something totally new - we're really not sure what to expect.
