    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phobos_(moon)

    Phobos has dimensions of 26 km × 23 km × 18 km, [6] and retains too little mass to be rounded under its own gravity. Phobos does not have an atmosphere due to its low mass and low gravity. [ 20 ] It is one of the least reflective bodies in the Solar System, with an albedo of about 0.071. [ 21 ]

  4. Sample Analysis at Mars - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sample_Analysis_at_Mars

    The quadrupole mass spectrometer (QMS) detects gases sampled from the atmosphere or those released from solid samples by heating. [1] [5] The gas chromatograph (GC) is used to separate out individual gases from a complex mixture into molecular components. The resulting gas flow is analyzed in the mass spectrometer with a mass range of 2–535 ...

    1995 photo of Mars showing approximate size of the polar caps. The planet Mars has two permanent polar ice caps of water ice and some dry ice (frozen carbon dioxide, CO 2).Above kilometer thick layers of water ice permafrost slabs of dry ice are deposited during a pole's winter, [1] [2] lying in continuous darkness, causing 25–30% of the atmosphere being deposited annually at either of the ...
