Is NOT potato

 

If you don't watch Stephen Colbert monologues on late night TV, you might not get that.  In any case, this is not about a potato, it's about the Martian moon Phobos, which is frequently described as potato-shaped.  

The Perseverance rover recently captured the best-ever video of Phobos passing in front of the Sun from the viewpoint of the Martian surface.  Here's a still from the video, followed by a link to the article featuring the video.
