The Latest Breaking News from Phobos

The year 2023 proved to be an important one for space missions, with NASA’s OSIRIS-REx mission returning a sample from an asteroid and India’s Chandrayaan-3 mission exploring the lunar south pole, and 2024 is shaping up to be another exciting year for space exploration.

The origin of two of Mars' smallest moons is a matter of much debate. But this new mission might finally resolve it.

the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency will launch a mission, named “Martian Moon eXploration”, to Phobos and Deimos in September 2024. The mission will be carried by a newly designed rocket, the H-3, which is still under development.

Japan’s ambitious mission to explore the two mini moons of Mars could be facing a lengthy delay as JAXA's new H3 rocket, which will launch MMX, failed on its debut flight in March.

The two small moons of Mars, Phobos (about 22km in diameter) and Deimos (about 13km in diameter), have been puzzling scientists for decades, with their origin remaining a matter of debate. Some have proposed that they may be made up of residual debris produced from a planet or large asteroid…

The solar system can be a violent place.

The asteroid-like Deimos may have come from planet Mars, according to new data from an Emirati spacecraft. But the debate over the moon's origin story is not over yet.

The pictures were taken by the UAE Space Agency’s Emirates Mars Mission Hope Probe.

NASA and the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency signed a deal on April 17 to cooperate on a mission to collect samples of the Mars moon Phobos launching in 2024.

With the MMX rover, the world is breaking new ground in terms of technology because never before has an exploration vehicle with wheels travelled on a small celestial body with only one-thousandth of the Earth’s gravitational pull.

Scientists call dramatic footage of the Red Planet's moons “amazing.”
