Hi everyone.
Phoenix on Sol 46 have returned images of the Sun above the Northern Horizon, just before midnight. Sun 11:14 PM local time. Sun 11:16 PM local time. Sun 11:26 PM local time. Andrew Brown. -------------------- "I suddenly noticed an anomaly to the left of Io, just off the rim of that world. It was extremely large with respect to the overall size of Io and crescent shaped. It seemed unbelievable that something that big had not been visible before". Linda Morabito on discovering that the Jupiter moon Io was volcanically active. Friday 9th March 1979.

I suspect that if you were to look at the exposure lengths of those images, you would find that the "shutter" remained open longer when there was less light.
