Deimos and Phobos Interior Explorer (DePhine) is a European mission concept to use a dedicated orbiter to explore the two moons of Mars: Phobos and Deimos.The mission concept was proposed in 2016 to the European Space Agency's Cosmic Vision programme for launch in 2030, [1] but it was not chosen as a finalist for the M5 mission class.
The Living Interplanetary Flight Experiment [2] (LIFE or Phobos LIFE [3]) was an interplanetary mission developed by the Planetary Society.It consisted of sending selected microorganisms on a three-year interplanetary round-trip in a small capsule aboard the Russian Fobos-Grunt spacecraft in 2011, which was a failed sample-return mission to the Martian moon Phobos.
Martian Moons eXploration (MMX) is a robotic space probe set for launch in 2026 to bring back the first samples from Mars' largest moon Phobos. [3] [5] Developed by the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency and announced on 9 June 2015, MMX will land and collect samples from Phobos once or twice, along with conducting Deimos flyby observations and monitoring Mars's climate.
