Best Answer

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.
