One of the Martian moons travels between the rover and the sun. It’s a bit different to my usual posts, and not my OC :).

I believe it’s Phobos, so there might be doom music kicking in any second now…

        Nice! I was going to do something like that, but I was in a rush. And also lazy.

    Doom (1993) took place on both moons FYI. Episode 1 was Phobos and episode 2 was Deimos.

    This must clearly be the first time we’ve seen such an event on another planet, right?

      Mars is the first planet, as far as I know, but this isn’t the first transit we saw

    What are the little red and green and blue dots? Just noise?

      I don’t know, but one of the other comments said they’re dead pixels, a part of the camera has failed over time.
