We have observed the leading and trailing hemispheres of Phobos from 1.65 to 3.5 ยตm and Deimos from 1.65 to 3.12 ยตm near opposition. We find the trailing hemisphere of Phobos to be brighter than its leading hemisphere by 0.24 ยฑ 0.06 magnitude at 1.65 ยตm and brighter than Deimos by 0.98 ยฑ 0.07 magnit

In recent years a number of separate observations suggest the possibility that the martian satellites may have been the result of giant impact. Similar to the Earth-Moon system, Mars has too muc
