Phobos and Deimos cartography

open access: yesPlanetary and Space Science, 2014
Abstract This paper presents an overview of developments in the cartography of the Martian moons Phobos and Deimos from the early satellite images to recent maps based on data from past and on-going Mars missions, especially Viking and Mars Express. We describe in detail the definition and use of special projections for these irregular-shaped bodies.

Phobos and Deimos [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Once the Galilean satellites of Jupiter were discovered and the Copernican model of the solar system became widely accepted, Mars’ apparent lack of a moon was notable. By the end of the seventeenth century, Saturn was known to have at least five satellites, a number that swelled to seven by the end of the eighteenth century.

Science exploration architecture for Phobos and Deimos: The role of Phobos and Deimos in the future exploration of Mars

Advances in Space Research, 2018
Abstract Phobos and Deimos are the only natural satellites of the terrestrial planets, other than our Moon. Despite decades of revolutionary Mars exploration and plans to send humans to the surface of Mars in the 2030’s, there are many strategic knowledge gaps regarding the moons of Mars, specifically regarding the origin and evolution of these ...

Spatial distribution of impact craters on Deimos [PDF]

open access: yesIcarus, 2017
Deimos, one of the Martian moons, has numerous impact craters. However, it is unclear whether crater saturation has been reached on this satellite. To address this issue, we apply a statistical test known as nearest-neighbor analysis to analyze the ...

Astrometric observations of Phobos and Deimos with the SRC on Mars Express

open access: yesAstronomy and Astrophysics, 2006
Observations of Phobos and Deimos, carried out by the SRC (Super Resolution Channel) on the Mars Express spacecraft between May 2004–April 2005, were used to determine the center-of-figure positions of the two Satellites with accuracies of 0.5–5 km ...
