MMX flying over Phobos and Mars
The Martian Moon eXploration (MMX) mission will explore Mars’s two moons: Phobos and Deimos. It will do so by flying right up close to them, and even landing on Phobos to collect a sample, before returning to Earth.
This image is an artist impression showing the MMX spacecraft (right) flying over Phobos (lower left). Mars can be seen in the background.
