Ever since I read about Phobos and Deimos, I've been fascinated by their unique orbital characteristics and formation theories. It's intriguing to think about how these moons defy our traditional understanding of celestial mechanics, especially with Phobos gradually spiraling towards Mars.

Prob my fav interstellar images of their own moons from Mars as well.

[@brianw612]

To look up and see the host planet covering 25% of the entire sky, that's incredible. I hope someone sends a probe and gets an image of Mars from the surface of Phobos.

Interesting the ideas people have about these moons.

Great video and information !

Neat stuff. Cute little moons. I believe even some large asteroids have little moonlets orbiting them. Back when astronomic discoveries were probably made weekly. Back then it was thought Mars may very well be inhabited. Golden age of astronomy or at least telescope astronomy.

I'm still skeptical that Phobos will rain down upon the inhabitants that will colonize Mars. So the Mars colony would be only has 30 to 50 million years. What other moons and planets can we consider, that don't have less then a billion years....

These moons are none else then captured asteroids because mars sits within the asteroid belt. The shape and size of these objects just proves it, no need to investigate further.

[@seanhewitt603]

You sound like your covering up something. I don't trust such statements.'no need to investigate'.

[@vasheed]

Mars resides near the asteroid belt, not within it. Otherwise it would be considered a dwarf planet, like Pluto.

[@bkc7890]

If that was the case the moons wouldn’t orbit around the equator in the same direction of mars’s spin. Neptune’s moon Triton is captured, and it has a non equator orbit and orbits retrograde to Neptune. Mars’s moons formed from the planet.

This is genuinely the first KZbin channel that has told me to dislike the video

Artificial Fake Moons Hollow, merci.

Does Mars pass through any of the Meteor showers as the Earth

[@lexinexi-hj7zo]

IF they are from comets then yes as long as they are parallel to the plane of the solar system.

Their chunks of Mars... I believe Mars was struck by a moon of its own, whether it was caused by another impact from outside the Martian orbital plane, or its moon's orbit started out unstable and drifting in and out on a long narrow orbit. Eventually coming close enough to begin breaking apart, dropping massive chunks of the moon to the surface of Mars, causing serval massive craters around the planet. All of this is just theory of course, but for planet to be stable enough to hold water on its surface for timeframes in the millions of years, some of its features show huge, world wrecking events.
