- According to JAXA, the H3 rocket is scheduled to launch from Tanegashima Space Center at 4:41 a.m. October 20.
- MMX is expected to reach Mars in August 2027, orbit Phobos, land and collect at least 10 grams during three years of operations.
- The IDEFIX rover will inspect the surface before landing; Deimos will be observed, but no landing is planned there.
- JAXA is also assessing Phobos as a possible natural space station for future crewed Mars missions.
If Phobos and Deimos are indeed remnants of these early delivery systems, they may hold clues to the origins of life itself, or, to be more correct, to the transport of the materials that were key to the emergence of life on rocky planets,— Patrick Michel, a French astrophysicist working on IDEFIX, told AFP.
