Yes, mars planet. Small, red, cold.
Has 2 moons:
Phobos and Deimos (Greek: fear, panic)
Mars is Latin name of Ares (Greek), god of war;
Phobos and Deimos were his attendants.
Romans had named the first month of the year "Martius" (of Mars) because it was the first year where armies could leave Rome for war (before that, roads were not good enough).
The planet got the names (Ares, Mars) because it appears red, the colour of blood (easily associated with war). Iron oxyde on surface (commonly called rust).
