Phobos is this big and still not round? Uh, what was the name, the size where stone behaves like a liquid. Well, Phobos doesn't have that yet?
Phobos is tiny. It's just very close compared to our moon. 9500km as compared to our 384000km.
And the sun looks smaller from Mars because it's further away, making Phobos seem bigger
Ah, thanks! Also, Phobos is fast!
I believe you are looking for hydrostatic equilibrium. There don't seem to be good answers for this online, but according to Robert Black on this Quora post:
A quintillion is 1 x 10 to the 18th and Phobos has a mass of 1.0659 x 10 to the 16th kilograms and a diameter of 22 kilometers.
Yes that, thanks!
