• Phobos is named after the Greek god of fear and panic, who is the son of Ares (Mars) and twin brother of Deimos.
• Hall, who also discovered Phobos shortly afterwards, had been specifically searching for Martian moons at the time.
• Deimos served to represent the feelings of dread and terror that befell those before a battle, while Phobos personified feelings of fear and panic in the midst of battle.

• On Mars's largest moon, Phobos, the crater Gulliver is named after him, while the crater Grildrig has the name given to Gulliver by the farmer's daughter Glumdalclitch in Brobdingnag, because of Swift's 'prediction' of the two then undiscovered Martian moons, which his Laputan astronomers had discovered.
• The lander had an x-ray/alpha spectrometer to provide information on the chemical element composition of the surface of Phobos, a seismometer to determine the internal structure of Phobos, and the "Razrez" penetrator with temperature sensors and an accelerometer for testing the physical and mechanical properties of the surface.
• Phobos 2 successfully carried out three preliminary encounters with Phobos by using its Videospectrometric Camera, the Combined Radiometer and Photometer for Mars and the Imaging Spectrometer for Mars.
• In 2020's Doom Eternal, a new version of the weapon, the BFG 10000, appears, as a massive interplanetary cannon mounted on Mars's moon, Phobos, used by the in-universe UAC organization to protect its control of Mars and the surrounding airspace.

• Stickney encouraged Hall to continue his search for satellites of Mars when he was ready to give up, and he successfully discovered the moons Phobos and Deimos.
• The impact created a large amount of ejecta which escaped Phobos' gravity and entered into orbit around Mars for a period not exceeding 1000 years, some of this material then crashed back onto Phobos and created secondary impact craters.
• The moons of Mars (Phobos and Deimos) were named by Asaph Hall in 1878, soon after he discovered them.
• Since the areostationary orbit lies between Mars's two natural satellites, Phobos (semi-major axis: 9,376 km) and Deimos (semi-major axis: 23,463 km), any satellites in the orbit will suffer increased orbital station keeping costs due to unwanted orbital resonance effects.
• His earliest strips in the 1970s appeared in such British small press comics as Graphixus, Brainstorm Comix, Moon Comix, Yikes, Animal Bite Comix, No Ducks, Phobos, Streetcomix, Free Comix, Warrior and Fish.
