Lucy Spacecraft

The Lucy spacecraft is a NASA mission designed to explore the Trojan asteroids, a group of ancient space rocks that share Jupiter's orbit. Launching in 2021, Lucy aims to uncover insights into the early Solar System's formation and evolution by studying these remnants. The spacecraft will conduct flybys of seven different Trojans, offering valuable data about their composition, structure, and history. This mission promises to deepen our understanding of planetary origins and shed light on the mysteries of our cosmic past.
