Asaph Hall, in 1877. Mars has two tiny natural moons, Phobos and Deimos, which orbit very close to the planet and are thought to be captured asteroids.
Both satellites were discovered in 1877 by Asaph Hall, and are named after the characters Phobos (panic/fear) and Deimos (terror/dread) who, in Greek mythology, accompanied their father Ares (Mars) , God of War, into battle.

He predicted (correctly) that some of the mountains were taller than any on earth.
