Most detailed images of Mars’ moon Deimos unveiled
The most detailed images of Mars' moon Deimos have been unveiled after a probe flew just 100km (62 miles) from its surface.
The "unprecedented" high-resolution pictures, captured by the UAE Space Agency during a series of flybys, include a glimpse of areas on the far side of the moon which have never been observed in such detail before.
The moon - which NASA describes as "small and lumpy" - takes 30 hours to orbit Mars and is just nine miles long (15km).
