A "rainbow" connection?

I wonder what 7-Zark-7 would say?

A recent image taken by NASAтАЩs Perseverance rover appears to show a breathtaking rainbow on Mars. The photograph has caused mass speculation online, as scientific evidence shows there shouldnтАЩt be rainbows on Mars.

On Earth, rainbows appear when sunlight meets the right atmospheric conditions, in which the light hits and reflects off of individual water droplets in the atmosphere.

However, given the cold, thin, and dry atmosphere of Mars, the chances of the image being of an actual rainbow are unlikely.

I'm wondering if it could be sunlight rebounding from moisture from the Earth's atmosphere?

Turns out it wasn't a rainbow, but a reflection off the rover.
