NASA launches history-making probe to study Jupiter’s asteroids

"NASA launched a first-of-its kind mission on Saturday to study Jupiter's Trojan asteroids, two large
clusters of space rocks that scientists believe are remnants of primordial material that formed the
solar system's outer planets.

The space probe, dubbed Lucy and packed inside a special cargo capsule, lifted off on schedule from
Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida at 5:34 a.m. EDT (0934 GMT), NASA said."
