The United Arab Emirates' Amal spacecraft flew within 62 miles of Mars' little moon last month and sent back the most detailed photos yet.
The United Arab Emirates' Amal spacecraft flew within 62 miles of Deimos last month and the close-up shots were released Monday. Amal — Arabic for Hope — got a two-for-one when Mars photobombed some of the images. It was the closest a spacecraft has been to Deimos in almost a half-century.
Mars’ other moon, Phobos, is almost double that size and better understood since it orbits much closer to Mars — just 3,700 miles away, the closest of any planet’s moon in our solar system.
