ESA’s Hera Probe Captures Stunning Image of Mars’ Moon Deimos During Flyby
Hera spacecraft captured an extraordinary near-infrared image of Mars’ moon Deimos during a flyby of the Red Planet. This marks the first use of Hera’s science instruments, providing a detailed view of Deimos silhouetted against Mars—a rare perspective of the lesser-known Martian moon.
Mysterious Mars moon captured in unprecedented images by space probe
A space probe named Hera captured images of Mars' small Deimos moon while on a mission to examine an asteroid.
Check Out These Rare Images of Deimos, One of Mars’ Mysterious Moons
Like our moon, Deimos is tidally locked to Mars, meaning the same side always faces the planet—the only side visible to rovers on the Martian surface. The only way to see Deimos’ far side up close is for a probe like Hera to fly behind it, making such images more of a rarity.
Spacecraft Takes Time to Shoot Mars' More Mysterious Moon as It Heads Deep Into Space
The European Space Agency (ESA) fires up three of the instruments on the Hera spacecraft and takes images of the smaller Martian moon.

European spacecraft got rare close-up of Mars' lesser-known moon
While the car-sized spacecraft flew around the Mars system, flight controllers on Earth temporarily lost communication with Hera because the signal was blocked. Though the blackout was planned for the maneuver, Ian Carnelli, the European Space Agency's Hera mission manager, said it was deeply emotional.
Tiny Mars moon Deimos gets a rare close-up, thanks to Europe's Hera asteroid probe (photos)
Europe's HERA mission has taken a good look at Mars and its moon Deimos on its way to explore the aftermath of the DART impact in the Didymos–Dimorphos asteroid system.
