Might want to delete this and correct the spelling of Phobos. The
origins of Phobos remain speculative but the most interesting part of
this research to me is the detection on Phobos of phyllosilicates,
which are formed in the presence of liquid water. Phyllosilicates is
another word for clays. Their detection on Mars was a key indication
of the large scale presence of liquid water on the Red Planet.
