How many moons does Mars have?


Question asked by: knowitall
No photo yet
With all the focus on the red planet and life, and the supposed channels that were the sign of extra terrestrial life in previous centuries, people forget about the moons of this neighbour planet, the Red Planet.

However Mars has two moons.

These are called Phobos and Deimos respectively, and are minor satellites, so called. They are small compared to the Earth's moon which is much larger and more significant.
