Perseverance Captures Transit of Phobos NASA Jet Propulsion
Martian Moon Phobos NASA Science
New temperature data and closeup images of the Martian moon Phobos gathered by NASAs Mars Global Surveyor indicate the surface of this small body has been pounded into powder by eons of meteoroid impacts some of which started landslides that left dark trails marking the steep slopes of giant craters
NASAs longestlived mission to Mars has gained its first look at the Martian moon Phobos pursuing a deeper understanding by examining it in infrared wavelengths The Thermal Emission Imaging System camera on NASAs Mars Odyssey orbiter observed Phobos on Sept 29 2017 Researchers have combined visiblewavelength and infrared data to produce
Examining Mars Moon Phobos in a Different Light

Phobos is the larger of Mars two moons and is 17 x 14 x 11 miles 27 by 22 by 18 kilometers in diameter It orbits Mars three times a day and is so close to the planets surface that in some locations on Mars it cannot always be seen
For the first time NASAs Mars Odyssey orbiter has caught the Martian moon Phobos during a full moon phase Each color in this new image represents a temperature range detected by Odysseys infrared camera which has been studying the Martian moon since September of 2017Looking like a rainbowcolored jawbreaker these latest observations could help scientists understand what materials make

NASAs Perseverance Mars rover used its MastcamZ camera to capture the silhouette of Phobos one of the two Martian moons as it passed in front of the Sun on Sept 30 2024 the 1285th Martian day or sol of the mission Perseverance has captured several Phobos transits since its landing at Mars Jezero Crater in February 2021 By comparing

Could the Surface of Phobos Reveal Secrets of the Martian Past NASA
The Martian moon Phobos orbits through a stream of charged atoms and molecules that flow off the Red Planets atmosphere new research shows Many of these charged particles or ions of oxygen carbon nitrogen and argon have been escaping Mars for billions of years as the planet has been shedding its atmosphere
