The UAE's Hope mission has captured the first high-resolution images of Mars's moonlet Deimos, suggesting that it was formed together with Mars rather than being captured in the planet's orbit. The observations also indicate that Deimos is made of the same type of material as Mars's surface. The spacecraft's main science goal was to study seasonal variations in the planet's atmosphere and weather patterns, but it will now make multiple observations of Deimos.
