🚀 Have you perhaps wondered how the process of producing Andrea Luck’s @andrealuck.bsky.social stunning images of Phobos against the backdrop of Mars—taking into account their relative motion—actually works? 🤭 I have a hypothesis 🔭 I recommend Andrea's album "Phobos" on flickr: flic.kr/s/aHBqjAvrQL

I’m definitely inclined to think it’s a shadow. There are lots of stones with sharp edges in that area. A fairly typical object can be seen in the example image.
