Spectral analysis of the Phobos 2 magnetic field measurements by the method of global minimum and maximum entropy was employed to evaluate the amplitude of the magnetic field in the tail connected with corotating part of the intrinsic magnetic field. That made it possible to estimate the Martian moment M less than or equal to 1.25 x 1012 cu Tm which is uncertain by a factor 2 due to unknown angle between the spin axis and the magnetic moment. A second way of estimating the magnetic moment is from pressure balance near the magnetopause. Third - by calculation of the internal magnetic field in vicinity of the magnetopause. Comparison shows that the three calculated values coincide under some theoretical assumptions. This analysis can be applied to any planet.
