Phoenix’s First Frost: Before and After

Here’s an animation I’ve made showing how frost has appeared on the surface of Mars close to Phoenix. This gif animation (click on the image to see it working) flicks between an image taken on Sol 56 and another on Sol 79…

That’s a heck of a difference, isn’t it? I can’t wait to see how this frost grows and thickens in the coming days… Maybe in 20 sols’ time it could look something like this..?
