Phobos 1 Phobos 1 Phobos 1 was an unmanned Russian space probe of the Phobos Program launched from the Baikonour launch facility on 7 July 1988. Its intended mission was to explore Mars and its moons Phobos and Deimos. The mission failed on 2 September 1988 when a computer malfunction caused the end-of-mission order to be transmitted to the spacecraft. At the time of launch it was the heaviest interplanetary spacecraft ever launched, weighing . It was to take an estimated 200 days for the "Phobos 1" space probe to travel from the Earth to Mars. Two mid-course corrections were planned. The

SpaceX has no ongoing contracts with Mars One. The first Mars One cargo mission to Mars is proposed to launch by 2022, followed by a crewed mission in 2024, but without funds, hardware, and without a launcher it is seen as unlikely to happen. A hypothetical crewed interplanetary spacecraft, for which there are no concept design studies, would be assembled in low Earth orbit and comprise two propellant modules: a Transit Living Module (discarded just
