Phobos and Deimos
Created | Updated Apr 19, 2002
An entire page devoted to the two very worst satallites in the whole Galaxy. Phobos belongs to Mars, it is very small and it's basically a big peanut in space. It has a twin that is just as bad, and this is called Deimos. It is also a big peanut in space. The other moons in our Solar System, such as Titan and Triton and Europa are all big, spectacular affairs that are the subject of much media speculation and glamorous visits by space probes, but Phobos and Deimos are simply ignored. The few missions that vaguely involve these two moons are basically desperate attempts to prove that they aren't moons after all and are merely captured asteroids, because every scientist in the Galaxy considers them to be nothing more than embarrassments to the satellite fraternity. We, however, rather like them.
