Like Earth, Mars also has quakes. NASA's Insight lander will measure marsquakes, among other things, and help us to determine what Mars' core, mantle, and crust are made of and how the planet formed.

This clip from National Geographic's "Mars" imagines how the first Mars settlers will handle tremors on the red planet.

Episode 6 (the season 2 finale), “The Shake Up,” airs Monday, Dec. 17 at 9/8c on National Geographic Channel.
