Phobos program the equatorial areas of Mars, with a spatial resolution ranging from 7 to 25 km, and 400 spectra of Phobos at 700 m resolution. These observations made it possible to retrieve the first mineralogical maps of the planet and its satellite, and to study the atmosphere of Mars. ISM was developed at IAS and DESPA (Paris Observatory) with support from CNES.

Mars Cube One Mars Cube One Mars Cube One (or MarCO) is a Mars flyby mission that was launched on 5 May 2018 alongside NASA's "InSight" Mars lander mission. It consists of two nanospacecraft, MarCO-A and MarCO-B, that were able to provide a real-time communications link to Earth for "InSight" during its entry, descent, and landing (EDL) on 26 November 2018 - when "InSight" was out of line of sight from the Earth. Both are of the 6U CubeSat format, and the mission is a test of new miniaturized communications and navigation technologies. These are the first CubeSats designed to operate beyond Earth
