Where can I get information about Mars and its moons?

I would try visiting the Mars Atlas at the NASA Ames Research Center. Also, the Planets Page at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory and the Views of the Solar System. You can also try doing a search under Mars, Diemos and Phobos in Alta Vista. If you are careful to reject the trash from the good sites, this can turn up lots of neat stuff. Phobos and Diemos are shown above, not to scale.
