"NASA's Perseverance Rover Captures Epic Martian Solar Eclipse"

NASA's Perseverance rover captured images of a partial solar eclipse on Mars as its moon, Phobos, passed in front of the sun, casting a shadow on the planet's surface. The images, taken on Feb. 8, show Phobos' irregular silhouette moving across Mars, providing scientists with valuable data on the moon's orbit and its effects on the planet. The rover, which landed on Mars in 2021, used its cameras to capture the eclipse as part of its mission to study the Red Planet and search for signs of ancient life.
