Does Phobos have seasons?

Phobos does not have seasons like Earth does because it is tidally locked to Mars, meaning the same side always faces the planet. This results in a consistent temperature on the surface of the moon.


How far is Mars from Phobos?

9,377 km on average. 9,377km is the average of the periapsis and apoapsis of Phobos' orbit around Mars. But aren't the apses measured from the gravitational focus which would be near the center of Mars. If that is true, then the equatorial radius of Mars of 3396km should be subtracted from 9377km which would give an approximate distance of 5981km. Of course, Phobos also has a radius of 11km, so the distance between the surface of Phobos and the surface of Mars would be approximately and on average about 5970km. Yes that is the correct answer. 5970 km on average from the surface of Mars.


What is the surface temperature range for Mars?

Mars temperature range is -140 degrease Celsius in the winter and 20 degrease Celsius in the summer. The highest climate is 30 degrease Celsius is the south because the south side of mars is hotter then the north.


Are Phobos and Deimos similar?

Yes, Phobos and Deimos are similar in that they are both moons of Mars. However, they have differences in size, shape, and surface composition, with Phobos being the larger and closer moon compared to Deimos.


What is phobos is a moon of this planet?

Phobos and Deimos are the only two ( but tiny) moons of mars, which are thought to be captured asteroids. Both moons are probabaly about 2 million years old. Phobos ("FOH bus") is the larger and innermost of Mars' two moons. Phobos is closer to its primary than any other moon in the solar system, less than 6000 km above the surface of Mars. It is also one of the smallest moons in the solar system. Deimos is the small and outter most of Mar's is two moons. It appears to have a little surface, becaues it is covered with a thick layer of dust. While, phobos probably doesn't have as much dust and debris, because it is closer to the moon.

What planet is the moon Phobos associated with?

Phobos is one of the moons of Mars. It is the larger of the two moons orbiting Mars and is an irregularly shaped object with a heavily cratered surface.


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.


Does Phobos have seasons?

Phobos does not have seasons like Earth does because it is tidally locked to Mars, meaning the same side always faces the planet. This results in a consistent temperature on the surface of the moon.


Does phobos volcanoes?

No, Phobos, one of Mars' two moons, does not have any volcanoes on its surface. Phobos is a small and heavily cratered body, and its surface is primarily made up of regolith and rocks. It is believed that Phobos is a captured asteroid rather than a volcanic body like some other moons in the Solar System.


Are mars moons Phobos Deimos Olympus?

Mars only has two moons; 'Phobos' & 'Deimos' ('Fear' & 'Panic' translated...) Olympus Mons is the name of a huge volcano on the surface of Mars

What is the name of the moon of Mars?

Mars has two moons: Phobos and Deimos.


What planet has two moons and hot rocky surface?

MarsYou have listed three features of the planet; rocky surface, hot temperature, and 2 moons. While Mars is a terrestrial planet (has a rocky surface) and has 2 moons (Phobos and Deimos), you're wrong on the last feature, in which you have written that Mars has hot temperature conditions. This is wrong, because the temperature on Mars is usually well below zero.


What is the surface temperature range for Mars?

Mars temperature range is -140 degrease Celsius in the winter and 20 degrease Celsius in the summer. The highest climate is 30 degrease Celsius is the south because the south side of mars is hotter then the north.


Which moon is bigger from Mars?

The answer for this question is Phobos. Phobos is bigger than Deimos. Phobos and Deimos are the moons on Mars.


Are Mars moons visbile from Mars surface?

Well, we can assume so, at least with the aided eye. Phobos and Deimos, the two moons of Mars, can easily be seen from Earth with the correct telescope, so it would be even easier on Mars, with less atmosphere and a shorter distance.


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.
