Tidal disruptions of rubble piles - the case of #Phobos: https://arxiv.org/abs/2602.21912 -> Mars will tear its own moon apart. Now scientists think it could be sooner – and more destructive – than expected: https://www.skyatnightmagazine.com/news/mars-tear-phobos-apart-could-happen-sooner

🇯🇵 #MMX will launch* in 📆 2026 and enter #Mars 🔴 orbit a year later. It will deploy a small #German and #French-built rover which will travel around #Phobos for at least 100 days. Once MMX collects its samples, it will lift off, leave Mars in 2030 and return to Earth in 2031 https://www.planetary.org/space-missions/mmx

This second image is quite unusual. The Mars Express viewing angle makes it look like Phobos is passing over Kasei Valles, but that region is actually farther north than Phobos’s orbit.
