With the moon that close and the speed they revolve about Mars I'm sure this happens often enough.  Just get into space near the moon.

Every time I see Mars' moons I'm reminded of just how small and non-round they are.

It makes me think less of them.  Oh they're just captured asteroids, not proper moons.

 

I know it's silly.
