Summary:
- NASA's Perseverance rover on Mars captured an "eerie eclipse" where the moon Phobos passed in front of the sun, creating a "googly eye" effect in the sky.
- Phobos, one of Mars' two moons, is much smaller than Earth's moon and orbits much closer to the planet, resulting in these unique eclipse events.
- The video footage from Perseverance provides a rare glimpse of the Martian sky and the movement of Phobos, which is slowly spiraling inward and will eventually break apart or crash into the planet.
