In a recent video from the Jezero crater, the Perseverance instrument captured the silhouette of Phobos, one of the two Martian moons, moving across the solar disk.
NASA’s rover Perseverance photographed the transit of Fobos before the Sun on August 12, 2026, during the mission’s 1948 sun. The silhouette of the largest moon on Mars was cut against the solar disk from the Jezero crater. It is not the first time that its cameras record this Martian eclipse. Perseverance has captured several transits of Fobos since it landed on Mars in February 2021, and each new sequence provides one more piece of data on the…
