The video discusses the Martian Moon Exploration (MMX) mission by JAXA, set to explore Phobos and Damos in 2024. The mission aims to collect dust samples from Phobos, using a NASA-funded spectrometer to analyze the moons' composition. The MMX spacecraft will orbit the moons for a year, land on Phobos, and deploy a rover to collect samples. The mission's goals include investigating the moons' origins, finding evidence of water, and studying the gravitational stress on Phobos, which may lead to its disintegration in 30 to 50 million years.
