Mars has two relatively small natural satellites, Phobos and Deimos are. Catching asteroid hypothesis is supported, but the origin of these satellites is uncertain. Both satellites were discovered in 1877 by Asaph Hall, and named from characters Phobos (panic / fear) and Deimos (terror) who, in Greek mythology, accompanied their father Ares in battle. Ares also known as Mars to the Romans. Friday, June 28, 2013
