NASA's Perseverance Mars rover was treated to a 'googly eye'solar eclipse on Sept. 30 as the planet's moon Phobos passed in front of the sun.

Students tested the rovers in a simulated Mars environment meant to emulate what the ESA's Rosalind Franklin ExoMars rover will endure when it launches to the Red Planet in 2028.

The jet reached Mach 0.82 during the test flight, nearing Mach 1 — the speed of sound.

The images were taken during the spacecraft's 66th close flyby of Jupiter on Oct. 23.

'This process won't be complete for many millions of years — until then, Queen Berenice II will have to suffer the knots in her hair!'
