Martian Moon Phobos from MGS
Phobos, Mars's largest and innermost moon, is the darkest moon in our solar system. Its unusual orbit and color suggest it might be a captured asteroid, possibly made of ice and dark rock. This image, captured by the Mars Global Surveyor, shows a heavily cratered, barren surface. Scientists use such images to understand its composition and origin.
