Japan's mission targets Martian moon
Japan has launched the Martian Moons eXploration (MMX) mission to study and collect samples from Phobos, one of Mars' moons. The spacecraft departed from Japan's Tanegashima Space Center and is expected to reach Mars' vicinity by August 2027, with plans to land on Phobos in December 2028 and return samples by 2031. The mission aims to explore the moons' origins and their connection to Mars. NASA's involvement includes providing scientific instruments and communication support.
