Phobos surface sequence
These five images of the larger martian moon, Phobos, were acquired using five different channels of High Resolution Stereo Camera during Mars Express orbit 17 342 on 12 September 2017: the nadir channel (centre image), the two photometry channels (left and right of the centre image) and the stereo channels (on the far left and right). A different area of the moon's surface can be seen in each image from various viewing angles, allowing models of the surface and shape to be improved.
