Curation protocol of Phobos sample returned by the Martian Moon Exploration (MMX)The Martian Moons Exploration (MMX) aims to return the regolith samples from the Martian moon, Phobos. After the topographic and spectroscopic observation, the spacecraft will land on the surface of Phobos to conduct the sampling operation[1–2]. Pneumatic and coring samplers will collect ≥10 g Phobos grains from two different sites. The collected samples will be retrieved from the capsule and transferred to the curation facility in 2029.
