Ep. 4 - Lucy: In the Sky with Asteroids

We're bringing you a story about a groundbreaking mission named Lucy, set to launch in October of 2021. This mission will visit and study a record number of Trojan asteroids that are some of the oldest objects in our solar system. It takes an incredible amount of work to plan a mission to one location in deep space, but planning a mission to visit seven Trojan asteroids is a once-in-a-lifetime event. We take you behind the scenes with the engineers and scientists leading this mission and then "flash forward" to advanced mission designing and what possibilities we can accomplish next.
