The 2024 Sagamihara Special Open Campus Day

In November, the JAXA Sagamihara Special Open Campus Day was held, with the MMX exhibit including a 1/2 size model of the spacecraft.

The MMX sampling instrument (C-SMP and SSTM) for collecting material from Phobos joined the comprehensive spacecraft system tests

The C-SMP and SSTM MMX sampling equipment that will collect material from Phobos are now being integrated onto the spacecraft!

Build your own MMX! (With a 3D printer)

The MMX Project has published files that you can use to print your own 1:48 scale MMX spacecraft with a 3D printer!

The flight model for the MSA (Mass Spectrum Analyzer) has been completed.

Development for the Mass Spectrum Analyzer (MSA) that will measure the ions originating from Mars and Phobos is now complete, and ready for assembly onto the MMX spacecraft.

Holding the 9th MMX System Design Meeting

The 9th System Design Meeting (SDM) was held over two days in April at the JAXA Sagamihara Campus.

The development for the flight model for the MMX Sample Return Capsule is complete!

Development for the MMX Sample Return Capsule (SRC) that will return the samples gathered from Phobos safely back to the Earth has been completed, along with the official handover for assembly onto the spacecraft.
