| In the Martian night sky, you can observe two satellites of the planet: Phobos and Deimos. They rotate in the equatorial plane of Mars in one direction, but for observers on Mars they move in opposite directions. Why?
The frequency of rotation of Phobos is greater than that of Mars, and the frequency of rotation of Deimos is less.
