Hi, Mars moons are too small and too faint to be spotted by an amateur telescope.

yep, they are tiny dots or blemishes and telescopes won’t pick em up but i think this one might just pick it up

I once had a 14" newtonian (dobson mount) that picked them up with no problem. I’ve been following Mars for a while now (and Saturn & Jupiter in the same horizon)… a fiery ruby in the night sky - even Arcturus looks pale in comparison!
