The solar eclipse visible from Mars is much smaller than the Earth’s. This is surprising, because Phobos is smaller than Earth’s moon by regarding 22. Rovers include Spirit, Opportunity, and Curiosity. The probes took pictures of the solar eclipse from Mars. Perseverance footage has been enlarged further in the video of the Phobos solar eclipse.
