Comparison of different resolution shape models, A 49,000 plate ellipsoid and B 3000, C 12,000, and D 49,152 plate Phobos models, used to calculate the relative contribution to a 60-s MEGANE measurement due to the geometry between the MMX spacecraft and each location on Phobos’ surface. The 60-s example shown uses MMX trajectory information for 1 April 2026, operating in QSO-LB, with a sub-nadir point of 0.1°N and 330.0°E and an altitude of 0.7 body radius
