Deimos is the smaller of Mars' two moons. It was named after an attendant of the Roman God, Mars. It is also Latin for "panic." Deimos is a dark satellite that is composed of black, carbonaceous chondrite. Some scientists believe that these moons are not actually satellites, but asteroids that have been captured instead. Scientists believe this because Deimos and Phobos are not completely round. In fact, they are not round at all! The dimensions of Deimos is 7.5*6.1*5.5 km. Deimos and Phobos, the second moon, have a lot of craters. However, Deimos is smoother and it's craters are partially filled. Here are some facts about Mars' moon, Deimos. Deimos was discovered by Asaph Hall in 1877 using a telescope at the United States Naval Observatory in Washington, D.C. (also the residence of the vice President of the United States!) The mass of Deimos is 1.8e15 kg. The rotational period of this moon is 1.26244 days, or about 30 hours, and the magnitude is 12.4 Vo.

PHOBOS:
Phobos is the larger of the two moons. It was named after an attendant of the Roman God, Mars. It is also Latin for "fear." Phobos is a dark moon that is composed of a black, carbonaceous chondrite. Like Deimos, some scientists believe that Phobos is actually a captured asteroid instead of a moon. This moon was discovered by Asaph Hall in 1877. Its mass is 1.08e16 kg. Phobos is 9,380 km from Mars, but is slowly moving closer to Mars. Scientists predict that in another 100 million years, Phobus will actually crash into Mars. Phobos is, at its longest, 14 miles (22 kilometers) across. Around three feet (1 meter) of it is a layer of dust built up over millions of years of meteorite collisions. Its rotational period is 0.3191 days, or around 7 hours, and it has a magnitude of 11.3 Vo.
mars have two moons
The planet Jupiter has over 60 moons. Most of these moons were found in the late 1900s, but new ones have recently been discovered.
Venus has no moons!
sorry to dissapoint you but it has none.
It has no moons
There is no life

Jupiter dosent have a surface. And if it did, you wouldn't be able to see the moons because of the 30 mile thick clouds!
Its Calisto,Ganymede,Europa, and Io
Europa
Europea is the smoothest and the iceyest moon, but Jupiter has many other moons too.
jupiters ice moon is Io
we can't use jupiters moons for anything because fistly we can not get out that far to reach Jupiters moon and if we could it would take thousands of years and Jupiters Moons would be to big to do anything with anyway. so the answer to What could Jupiter's moons be used for? is....Nothing.
Socrates, Gallileo
it's moons

Jupiters Moons

jupiters moons are different some have an atmosphere and MOST are asteroids
Europa has frozen oceans.
Lo Europa and Ganymede
Io
