Japan is Going to Bring a Sample of Phobos Back to Earth. The Martian Moon eXploration Mission
Mars has been the destination for so many of our spacecraft, and for good reason, it’s probably the most Earthlike place in the Solar System, with water ice on its surface and reservoirs of the liquid beneath the surface. If we’re going to find life, Mars might be the place.
