1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,003 (music throughout) 2 00:00:05,088 --> 00:00:08,049 So you're finally getting on your way to your asteroid encounters. 3 00:00:08,049 --> 00:00:11,344 Say, which Trojan asteroid are you visiting first, 4 00:00:11,344 --> 00:00:15,306 Lucy? Eurybates! 5 00:00:16,641 --> 00:00:18,893 You still have quite a long journey before you get there. 6 00:00:19,978 --> 00:00:22,939 So why don't you tell us what you already know about this 7 00:00:22,939 --> 00:00:24,858 first Trojan target? 8 00:00:28,945 --> 00:00:32,907 You're right. We don't know much about these objects just yet. 9 00:00:33,450 --> 00:00:36,536 Keep in mind, our only observations of these asteroids 10 00:00:36,745 --> 00:00:40,665 have been from a great distance away from telescopes back here on Earth. 11 00:00:41,374 --> 00:00:43,710 And with the Hubble Space Telescope. 12 00:00:43,710 --> 00:00:47,088 Scientists have used all kinds of different telescopes to get basic 13 00:00:47,088 --> 00:00:50,884 information about Lucy's Trojan asteroid destinations - where they are, 14 00:00:51,176 --> 00:00:54,637 how they're moving, how big they are, their general color. 15 00:00:55,180 --> 00:00:59,350 And if we're lucky, a very rough idea of their general shape. 16 00:01:00,602 --> 00:01:02,604 But nothing compares to actually flying 17 00:01:02,604 --> 00:01:05,857 right past these asteroids and getting a close up view. 18 00:01:06,483 --> 00:01:09,569 And that's where Lucy comes in. 19 00:01:09,694 --> 00:01:13,948 Yeah, exciting! This is the first close up of these worlds. 20 00:01:14,574 --> 00:01:17,786 You'll be learning as much as you can about these Trojan asteroids 21 00:01:18,119 --> 00:01:21,873 and giving us a new glimpse into what these distant worlds are. 22 00:01:22,665 --> 00:01:24,250 Now, get some rest, Lucy. 23 00:01:24,250 --> 00:01:27,128 It'll be a long journey before you get to your first destination.
