William W. Warwick presents empirical evidence that Phobos and Deimos were placed into orbit around Mars in antiquity. This theory is based on careful, scientific examination of the Kaidun meteroite, which was found to have the signature alkalinity left behind by nuclear pulse detonations. Could ancient people have used such detonations to create two orbiting space stations from pieces of asteroids?
