Anonymous Coward User ID: 432086 Germany 10/19/2008 11:04 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Doomed Moon of Mars This moon is doomed. Mars, named for the Roman god of war, has two tiny moons--Phobos and Deimos--whose names are derived from the Greek for fear and panic. These Martian moons may well be captured asteroids originating in the main asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter or perhaps from even more distant reaches of the solar system.
