Lucy will observe eight asteroids over 12 years. One of the eight asteroids orbits in what is known as the Asteroid Belt, an area between Ma

28、rs and Jupiter. Most known asteroids orbit within this area. The spacecraft will also observe seven Trojan asteroids.

32、oids. Other equipment will be used to record asteroid surface temperatures and measure the size of the objects the spacecraft observes. Lucy will depend on solar power to operate. NASA says the mission expects to set a record because Lucy will travel farther from the sun than any past solar powered

33、spacecraft. Lori Glaze, the director of NASAs planetary science division, said, “Whatever Lucy finds will give us vital clues about the formation of our solar system.”12What is the mission of the Lucy spacecraft?ATo collect soil samples from Jupiter.BTo explore the surface of Trojan asteroids.CTo se
