The Russkies tried to probe Phobos once before...that didn't go so well.

Lots of Mars missions don't go well. I'm behind on the percentage of successful missions.

The UK's Beagle 2 being the most notable recent failure, but a Japanese mission was DOA a few weeks before that (got zapped by a solar flare enroute).
