And for them to both be eclipsing at the same time, crazy odds… or, dare I say it, astronomical

What’s up with that wonky form? Is Phobos not a sphere? Has it let itself go since his wife left? Is it a “special” moon?

Photos and Deimos, Mars’ moons, are captured asteroids and look like lumpy potatoes.

Nah, our moon is exceptionally dull. Here we are, the only dot in the sunbeam that’s not black or white, and our sole natural satellite is flat, dark, and powder-gray. Like worn asphalt.
And it’s tide-locked! We don’t even get to see all of it. Like if Mars’s twin enormous boulders always looked like cardboard cut-outs instead of tumbling majestically over the years. Thank goodness for all this water and life and crap, or we’d be a C-tier heavenly body.

The fact that our moon is almost identical in size compared to our sun from our perspective is something exceptional in heavenly bodies! Give it some merit!
