What else can I help you with?
Do Mar's moons have any atmosphere?
No. The moons of Mars are far too small to have atmospheres.
What is the average temperature of Phobos?
Temperature â�� 233 K is known as Phobos temperature. The temperatures of Phobos, one of the moons of Mars,range from about −4 °C (25 °F) to −112 °C (−170 °F), on the sunlit and shadowed sides respectively.
Equals What are the names of Mars' moons?
Mars has two moons: Phobos and Deimos. Both moons are irregularly shaped and are thought to be captured asteroids from the asteroid belt.
What does the name Phobos mean?
The name Phobos means "fear" or "panic" in Greek. In Greek mythology, Phobos was the god of fear and a companion to Ares, the god of war. Phobos is also the name of one of the moons of Mars.
Is Phobos larger than Deimos?
Yes, Phobos is bigger than Deimos. Phobos mass is .00000018 and Deimos mass is .000000024. Phobos is 12X8 (miles) and Deimos is 7X6
What gases are in the atmosphere of Phobos?
Phobos, one of the moons of Mars, has an extremely thin atmosphere composed mainly of carbon dioxide (CO2) and some traces of other gases like nitrogen and argon. However, the atmosphere on Phobos is so sparse that it is considered essentially a vacuum.
Is there precipitation on Phobos?
No. Phobos is tiny, one of the moons of Mars. There isn't any atmosphere, so no rain.
Is there oxygen on the moon Phobos?
Phobos has little if any atmosphere; like Mars, we would assume that if any oxygen was present, it could only be measured in parts per million.
What is Phobos climate?
Phobos, one of Mars' moons, does not have its own atmosphere or climate. It is too small to retain an atmosphere, so it does not experience weather or climate patterns like those on Earth or larger planetary bodies.
What is the atmospheric air pressure of Phobos?
it is either zero or very, VERY near zero. A zero air pressure implies there is no atmosphere. Phobos is merely a captured asteroid, these objects are too small, not enough mass, to be capable of a large enough gravitational field to maintain an atmosphere.
How hot is phobos?
Because phobos has no atmosphere the temperature varies greatly from around -4C (25F) on the sunlit side to -112C (-70F) on the night side.
Why does Triton retains an atmosphere while Phobos does not?
Triton retains an atmosphere primarily due to its significant gravity and relatively low temperature, which allows it to hold onto gases like nitrogen. Its geologic activity, including geysers that release nitrogen and possibly other gases, also contributes to maintaining its atmosphere. In contrast, Phobos is much smaller and has insufficient gravity to retain an atmosphere, as its weak gravitational pull allows any gases to escape into space easily. Additionally, Phobos lacks significant geologic activity that could replenish any transient atmosphere it might have had.
Does the moon Phobos have oxygen?
Phobos is too small to have any sort of atmosphere at all. There may be some oxygen in the form of iron oxides (also known as "rust") but there will be nothing there that is usable as oxygen.
What planet has 2 moons?
The planet with two moons is Mars. The moons are called Phobos and Deimos.
Do Mar's moons have any atmosphere?
No. The moons of Mars are far too small to have atmospheres.
Does phobos have rocks?
Yes. Phobos does have rocks. :)
What is the average temperature of Phobos?
Temperature â�� 233 K is known as Phobos temperature. The temperatures of Phobos, one of the moons of Mars,range from about −4 °C (25 °F) to −112 °C (−170 °F), on the sunlit and shadowed sides respectively.
