That's actually amazing that we have eclipse shots from Mars. Anyone know how it was taken? What instrument?

Mars Rover pointing straight up.

NASA's Perseverance rover on Mars has returned a stunning sequence of images of its moon, Phobos, eclipsing the sun. From Mars' Jezero Crater, the rover's SkyCam and MastCam took over 65 images of the event on February 8, one per second, to ensure it captured the short event.

Probably a camera of some sort.

That would be my guess too. Perhaps aided by a kind of telescope.
