Getting a closer look at Phobos. @NASAPersevere used its Mastcam-Z camera to take video of Mars’ moon Phobos as it crossed the Sun. This eclipse lasted a little more than 40 seconds and gives the team insight into how Phobos’ orbit is changing over time. https://t.co/hOOQ8RIsRl

@AhrensScience @qianyuan_geo @NASAJPL Thanks, Caitlin!

[Dr. Cecilia Leung @CelestialCess]

@PlanetaryKeri @NASAJPL Yes! And the TECP relative humidity was recently recalibrated. So I used that new dataset in combination with coordinated measurements from orbit :)

@mclaurenseries @NASAJPL Thanks Lauren! Let’s grab lunch on lab soon.

[Dr. Cecilia Leung @CelestialCess]

@LaurieofMars @NASAJPL Thanks so much Laurie. Happy to share our results with you any time. So looking forward to you joining us on lab soon!

[Dr. Cecilia Leung @CelestialCess]

@abbyfrae Congrats, Abby!! Hope you're having a great time at LPSC.

@CamAndJn It was a pleasure chatting with you. Best of luck with the Brock SEDS chapter!

[Dr. Cecilia Leung @CelestialCess]

I loved participating in @SEDS as a college student, and always felt so inspired connecting with fellow space explorers at their events. Can't wait to continue the journey as a speaker at @sedscanada this year.
