	Deimos (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Mars II Deimos ("DEE mos") is the smaller and outermost of Mars' two moons.
		In Greek mythology, Deimos is one of the sons of Ares (Mars) and Aphrodite (Venus); "deimos" is Greek for "panic".
		Deimos and Phobos are probably asteroids perturbed by Jupiter into orbits that allowed them to be captured by Mars.

	Deimos (moon) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Deimos was discovered on August 12, 1877 at about 07:48 UTC (given in contemporary sources as "August 11 14:40" Washington mean time using the old astronomical convention of beginning a day at noon, so 12 hours must be added to get the actual local mean time) [1].
		Deimos is probably an asteroid that was perturbed by Jupiter into an orbit that allowed it to be captured by Mars, though this hypothesis is still in some dispute.
		When Deimos passes in front of the Sun its angular diameter is only about 2.5 times the angular diameter for Venus during a transit of Venus from Earth.

	ORRERY: Mars' Moons - Phobos & Deimos
		Both Phobos and Deimos are very close to the planet compared to Earth's Moon.
		Deimos, on the other hand, is nearly three times further away than Phobos, and orbits Mars in about 30 hours.
		This is just a little longer than the martian day, so Deimos would hardly move in the night sky - although again it would probably be eclipsed, and would be very small and feint anyway.

	Transit of Deimos from Mars (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		However, since the angular diameter of Deimos is only about 1/10 of the angular diameter of the Sun as seen from Mars, it is more natural to refer to it as a transit.

		A transit of Deimos from Mars usually lasts only a minute or two, due to its relatively rapid orbital period of about 30.3 hours.
