Phobos is gradually getting closer to Mars due to tidal forces. In a few tens of millions of years, it's expected that Phobos will get so close to Mars that the planet's gravity will tear it apart, creating a ring of debris. This process is entirely natural and has happened to other moons in our solar system, like Saturn's moon, Phoebe. So, no need to worry about any Martian evil plans – it's just...
