Apparent sizes of the moons of Mars, Deimos and Phobos, and the Moon as viewed from the surface of their respective planets (Curiosity rover, 1 August 2013) If viewed from Mars's surface near its equator, full Phobos looks about one third as big as a full moon on Earth. read more

Yes, Mars has two small moons named Phobos and Deimos. Their names mean fear and panic in Latin. Phobos and Deimos are not round like our Moon. They are much smaller and have irregular shapes. Phobos is 13.8 miles (22.2 km) across and Deimos is only 7.8 miles (12.6 km) across. Both moons are covered with craters and are made of rock and iron. read more
