Caution is right! I rotated one of the photos to the left to
see if there was structure there (personal curiosity), and all I
saw was an unusually brightly lit boulder on the surface of
Phobos, with an elongated shadow.  I don't think it's a
monolith.

No need to have an astrophysics degree to figure this one out!
