"Return to Phobos" (2008) - Two decades after the (then) Soviet Union's first robot mission to Mars' miniature satellite ended in a crushing, eleventh-hour failure, Russia and China
are preparing for a return visit to Phobos. "Phobos-Grunt" will attempt to land, collect a soil sample, and return it safely to Earth. It is depicted on its final approach to the tiny,
dark moon. © Copyright 2008, J. Hervat
