Isn't that Olympus Mons? 7 miles up?
Lemmy read the article for you. Yes.
Had a hunch so I googled the size of Phobos just now: 27 by 22 by 18 kilometers. Olympus Mons is larger than the bigger of Mars' two satelites.
Though it's probably more that I severely underestimated just how tiny Phobos and Deimos are. They feel bigger in Doom...
Where?
There!
