The telescope spent 10 days of exposure time staring at a tiny patch of the sky in the Ursa Major constellation, just one-thirteenth of the moon’s angular diameter.

With an angular diameter of about 0.14 degrees Phobos doesn't blot the whole Sun out - but it definitely makes a fair stab at it.

It is one-fifteenth the angular diameter of the full Moon as seen from Earth.

In the predawn sky, Mercury appears about twice the angular diameter of Uranus, so will look like a tiny half-moon that is 8 arc seconds across in a large telescope.

Even with clear skies and a good telescope, turbulence smears out details smaller than about 1 arcsecond in angular diameter — good enough to look up at the Hubble telescope, which is similar in size and altitude to spy satellites, and tell that it is a cylinder, but not much else.
