FfFfFfFF 58,131 Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 China's Tianwen-1 orbiter has sent back a high-resolution image of Phobos, the innermost and larger of the two natural satellites of Mars. The image was acquired by a high-resolution camera on the Tianwen-1 orbiter which was about 5,000 kilometers away from Phobos. In the picture, Phobos can be seen as an irregularly shaped object like a potato. Öpik, an impact crater on Phoboscan also be seen.

And its orbit isn't stable either I think it was in the next 200 million years or so its orbit will degrade to the point that it'll fall into Mars What a sight for any colonists though you know, before they die from the giant astroid impact Whimsical bitch Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perfect names for the moons of a planet named after the god of war ...or the god of fertility if you ask the Italians, apparently Whimsical bitch Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sneaky Oliver 22,985 Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 Since we’re talking about moons and names. Are all the other “moons” named after THE Moon? Or why doesn’t Earth’s moon have a name for itself? and why do we call some stars “sun” if the suns are just stars? And THE Sun is a star named Sun?!!!

So there was no point in giving them a name Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
