Mars's two moons, Phobos and Deimos, we're both discovered in August 1877 by Asaph Hall.

Asaph Hall III (Oct. 15, 1828-Nov. 22, 1907) was an American astronomer best known for his discovery of Phobos and Deimos, the two captured moons of Mars. Aside from this, Hall also discovered the orbits of other planet's satellites and of double stars, the rotational period of Saturn, and the mass of Mars.
