Fobos-Grunt
Fobos-Grunt or Phobos-Grunt (, literally "Phobos-Ground") was an attempted Russian sample return mission to Phobos, one of the moons of Mars. Fobos-Grunt also carried the Chinese Mars orbiter Yinghuo-1 and the tiny Living Interplanetary Flight Experiment funded by the Planetary Society. It was launched on 9 November 2011 at 02:16 local time (8 November 2011, 20:16 UTC) from the Baikonur Cosmodrome, but subsequent rocket burns intended to set the craft on a course for Mars failed, leaving it stranded in low Earth orbit.〔 Efforts to reactivate the craft were unsuccessful, and it fell back to Earth in an uncontrolled re-entry on 15 January 2012, over the Pacific Ocean west of Chile.〔("Russia's failed Phobos-Grunt space probe heads to Earth" ), BBC News, 14 January 2012〕〔("Did a U.S. radar mistakenly send Russia's $170m Mars probe into the Pacific?" ), ''Daily Mail'', 18 January 2012〕〔("Russia asks if US radar ruined Phobos-Grunt space probe" ), msnbc.com, 17 January 2012〕 The return vehicle was to have returned to Earth in August 2014, carrying up to 200 g of soil from Phobos. Funded by the Russian Federal Space Agency and developed by Lavochkin and the Russian Space Research Institute, Fobos-Grunt was the first Russian-led interplanetary mission since the failed Mars 96. The last successful interplanetary missions were the Soviet Vega 2 in 1985–1986, and the partially successful Fobos 2 in 1988–1989. Fobos-Grunt was designed to become the first spacecraft to return a macroscopic sample from an extraterrestrial body since Luna 24 in 1976. (Hayabusa returned microscopic grains of asteroid material in 2010, and Stardust returned cometary dust in 2006.) ==Project history==
