Yes. Mars has two: Phobos and Deimos; Earth has only one.
There is no direct connection between the mass of a planet and the number of moons it has. Mars is less massive than Earth but has twice as many moons as does Earth. Jupiter is more massive than either Mars of Earth and has many more moons that either of them.

These planets have the following numbers of moons: Earth - 1 Mars - 2 Jupiter - 63 - 4 of these are known as the 'Galilean moons'; the largest of the planet's satellites discovered by Galileo Saturn - 61 Uranus - 27 - Interesting fact - all of Uranus' moons are named after Shakespearean characters Neptune - 13 Pluto (even though it is technically a dwarf planet) - 3 All of the planets in the solar system have moons except for Mercury and Venus. Earth has only 1 and Mars 2, so all of the planets that follow have more moons than Earth or Mars.
Jupiter has 79 known moons, while Mars has 2. Therefore, Jupiter has 77 more moons than Mars.
No moons . . . Mercury and Venus One moon . . . Earth Two moons . . . Mars Each of the other planets has more than two moons. Jupiter leads with more than 60 !
The planet mars has more moons than he sun
Yes, Mars has two moons named Phobos and Deimos. They are much smaller than Earth's moon and are thought to be captured asteroids.
No planet has 19 moons as of June 2014. Earth has one moon and Mars has two. Mercury and Venus have no moons. The other planets all have more than 20 moons.
Mars has two moons: Phobos and Deimos. Both are tiny, asteroid-like bodies with no atmosphere and irregular surfaces. Both orbit much more closely to Mars than the moon orbits Earth.
There are four terrestrial, or rocky, planets: Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars. Of these planets, only Mars has two moons.
Mars, Jupiter, Neptune and Uranus all have moons. Venus and Mercury do not have moons.
The mass of a planet has nothing to do with its number of moons. For instance, Mars' mass is much less than that of Earth, yet Mars has two moons (Deimos and Phobos) while the Earth has one. (Luna)
