In March, Emirates Mars Mission (EMM), the first interplanetary mission by an Arab nation, flew within 110 km of Mars’ moon Deimos, a rocky object barely 12 km across that has had limited opportunities for scientific attention and whose origins are unknown. In this press conference, an international team of scientists will share the highest-resolution visible, infrared, and ultraviolet data of Deimos ever acquired. Moreover, they will discuss the initial findings from the mission's rendezvous and explain how studying the geology and origin of Deimos can yield valuable insights into the formation and development of Mars and its moons.

Participants:
Hessa Al Matroushi, Emirates Mars Mission Science Deputy Project Manager, Mohammed Bin Rashid Space Centre, Dubai, United Arab Emirates
Justin Deigan, Research Scientist, Laboratory for Atmospheric and Space Physics, University of Colorado Boulder, United States
Christopher Edwards, Associate Professor, Department of Astronomy and Planetary Science, Northern Arizona University, United States
