Between 05:01:46 and 05:05:43 UTC the Navcam of Curiosity has re-recorded the passage of this thin cloud layer, probably cirrus at high altitude.
Despite the annoying presence of so much reflected light between the lenses of the camera, the subtraction of the same has allowed to highlight the passage of this tenuous layer of clouds otherwise almost invisible in the original images.
