The spacecraft was launched in 2021 to study the unexplored so-called Trojan asteroids out near Jupiter. Eight Trojan flybys are planned through 2033.

Lucy launched to the stars on Oct. 16, 2021, and is on a trajectory to study eight of the never-before-studied Jupiter Trojan asteroids, NASA said.

Prior to this discovery, Trojan asteroids for the other three giant planets in the solar system had been discovered—most of them around Jupiter, which has thousands of them.

The volume density of asteroids in the main belt about 10 times higher than that of Jupiter’s Trojan asteroids.
