Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Phobos fly-by orbital characteristics animation. NASA’s Mars Odyssey (MO) and Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) are in a low orbit around Mars. In observing Phobos, Mars Express benefits from its highly elliptical orbit which takes it from a closest distance of 270 km from the planet to a maximum of 10,000 km, crossing the 9000 km orbit of the moon. Mars Express imaged the far-side of Phobos (with respect to Mars) for the first time by flying outside the spacecraft’s orbit around Mars.

Media of the day This file was selected as the media of the day for 19 August 2020. It was captioned as follows:
English: Animation of Mars Express's fly-by of Phobos. Mars Express benefits from its highly elliptical orbit, making it possible to image the far-side of Phobos (with respect to Mars) for the first time. NASA’s Mars Odyssey (MO) and Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) are in a low orbit around Mars.

Čeština: Animace průběhu letu planetární sondy agentury ESA, Mars Express, vzhedem k Marsovu měsíci Phobos. Sonda díky své vysoké eliptické oběžné dráze provedla první snímkování odvrácené strany Phobu (vzhledem k Marsu). Sondy NASA - Mars Odyssey (MO) a Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) jsou v tomto ohledu na příliš nízké oběžné dráze.
