Phobos monolith
The Phobos monolith is a large rock on the surface of Mars's moon Phobos . [1] It is a boulder about 85 m (279 ft) across and 90 m (300 ft) tall. [2] [3] A monolith is a geological feature consisting of a single massive piece of rock. Monoliths also occur naturally on Earth, but it has been suggested that the Phobos monolith may be a piece of impact ejecta . The monolith is a bright object near Stickney crater , described as a "building sized" boulder, which casts a prominent shadow. [4] [5] It was discovered by Efrain Palermo, who did extensive surveys of Martian probe imagery, and later confirmed by Lan Fleming, an imaging sub-contractor at NASA Johnson Space Center . [6] Lan Fleming considered the possibility that the Phobos monolith may be artificial and not a geological feature or rock. [6]

The Phobos monolith is a surface feature on the Mars moon Phobos . It is a bright object near Stickney crater which casts a prominent shadow. [1] [2] It was discovered by Efrain Palermo, who did large surveys of Martian probe imagery, and confirmed by Lan Fleming, an imaging sub-contractor at NASA Johnson Space Center . [3] Fleming confirmed it was a real structure and not a "trick of light" in the Mars Global Surveyor 1999 image. [3] Monoliths are large single pieces of rock that occur naturally on Earth, and the Martian monolith has been suggested to be a piece of impact ejecta . [3] |
