NASA has made an incredible announcement regarding the planet Jupiter and all of humanity is concerned about what is happening, and this is because the American space agency has extremely bold plans. NASA has decided that it would be a great idea to send a space probe to explore the area near the planet Jupiter that contains space rocks known as Trojan asteroids, so we should learn a lot more about what it happens there.
NASA wants to explore an area near the planet Jupiter where there are asteroids that would have come from planets near the solar system, so they could hide many secrets regarding its formation. The space probe that NASA has sent into the solar system will reach areas with thousands of asteroids, part of them being in orbit around the sun before the planet Jupiter, another part being behind it, being caught by the force its gravitational.
NASA: INCREDIBLE Jupiter Announcement Targeting Mankind
NASA is making a first for mankind here, and this is because until now no other space probe sent by mankind into outer space has reached the area of the Trojan asteroids, so nothing is known about them. The largest of the asteroids that NASA wants to explore have diameters of up to 225 kilometers, tiny compared to the planet Jupiter, so it is very important to find out as much information as possible about their existence.
"Lucy will be the first space mission to study the Trojans. The mission takes its name from the fossilized human ancestor (named "Lucy" by her discoverers) whose skeleton provided a unique insight into the evolution of humanity. Likewise, the Lucy mission will revolutionize our knowledge of planetary origins and the formation of the solar system. Trojan asteroids are remnants from the early days of our solar system, effectively the fossils of planet formation.”
NASA wants to find out how both the planets in the solar system and those in the area outside it would have been formed, some of them may even have information about the formation of the Earth, according to the researchers. NASA will record another important first with its space probe, and this is because it would be the first to reach Jupiter, and close to the edge of the solar system, but it will return back to Earth, but this over many, many years.
NASA has thought of a series of very complex space missions to learn more about what is happening both near the planet Jupiter and others in the solar system, so many more surprises await us.
