Phobos moves very quickly in the sky of Mars. From its dawn in the west to its setting in the east, the satellite crosses the Martian sky in only 4 hours and 15 minutes. The angular size is about 0.20 °, one-third the size of the Moon in our sky. Deimos is visible with a size of 2.5 arcminutes, similar to Venus seen from Earth.
