Mars and seasonal cycles of Mars are likewise similar to those of Earth, as is the tilt that produces the seasons. Mars is the site of Olympus Mons, the largest volcano and second-highest known mountain in the Solar System, and of Valles Marineris, one of the largest canyons in the Solar System. The smooth Borealis basin in the northern hemisphere covers 40% of the planet and may be a giant impact feature. Mars has two moons, Phobos and Deimos, which are small and irregularly shaped. These may be captured asteroids, similar to 5261 Eureka, a Mars trojan. There are ongoing investigations
Timeline of discovery of Solar System planets and their moons asterisk (*) had complicated discoveries. Some took years to be confirmed, and in several cases were actually lost and rediscovered. Others were found in Voyager photographs years after they were taken." The planets and their natural satellites are marked in the following colors: <onlyinclude> </includeonly></onlyinclude> Timeline of discovery of Solar System planets and their moons <onlyinclude> The timeline of discovery of Solar System planets and their natural satellites charts the progress of the discovery of new bodies over history.
