Grunt is not russian word for soil. Grunt is variation of latin word - "ground"...

Go learn Russian :)! Or put the word грунт (grunt in russian letters) into this translater, choose russian to english and see for yourself ;-). --Bricktop 14:12, 9 September 2005 (UTC)


RE: "Grunt is not russian word for soil..."
A resource for the nomenclature I acquired it from must then be incorrect. At this time I am not sure where I actually found this, but if I come across it, I will post it in this discussion. I was curious as to why it was actually called "Phobos-Grunt" (although "Phobos" was obvious). Thus I explored and that was what I came up with. I will admit my Russian is bad, :). I have editted the page to say that it is in reference to the ground. Marsbound2024 17:08, 17 September 2005 (UTC)

Phobos is not Mars - Phobos is one of Mars' two satellites/moons EFletcher (talk) 10:18, 3 June 2008 (UTC)
