And Mars got its ring...

Digital work

This is my personal view of the future Martian ring. This image would fit well on a dusty dawn at a latitude of about 20ºN during a Martian equinox.
Phobos is moving closer to Mars every year, meaning the planet's gravitional pull on the satellite is increasing. Some scientists have theorized that Phobos will eventually collide with Mars, but the new research suggests that the small moon may not last that long. After simulating the stresses caused by the tidal pull of Mars some researchers have found that the moon would break up over the course of 20 million to 40 million years, forming a ring of debris around the planet. WOW!
