*******************************
Available data in the application is dependent on current data provided through NASA's databases. InSight data is fairly recent (version 1.0). Given this, there may be times when the data is not confirmed and will not be displayed in the application for InSight.
Updates to the Curiosity database can occur daily, while the InSight database is updated weekly at the latest.
Databases used in this application:
* Curiosity API: https://pudding.cool/2017/12/mars-data/marsWeather.json
* InSight API: https://api.nasa.gov/insight_weather/?api_key=DEMO_KEY&feedtype=json&ver=1.0
