As a 61 year old who was amazed (as was the whole world) when we went to the moon in 1969, the photos we get to see these days from the surface of Mars, plus fly-bys of Pluto, asteroids and comets, was unthinkable when I was a kid. This is another in that vein... simply incredible ❤

It could well be that the moonlet will be called Lucy since the names Lucy and Dinkinesh are so linked. Then we not only have the Psyche mission visiting the Psyche asteroid, but also the Lucy Mission which visited the asteroid Lucy.

did Lucy fixed the troubled solar panels ? (I'm not sure this will be answered)

What a clear picture. So even an astroid has a sort of moon. I'm 69 and thats a great picture of an astroid . When i think of them I think
about my atari astroid cartridge, I played in late 1970's . Never though I would see a real one.

I wonder if it has a fractional well or Eddy detector on it so it can monitor a flailing Satellite rock like this to avoid it ?
I'd imagine some might have a wide eleptical orbit about it's bianary.

Seems the neighborhood is just chock full of cohabitating dirt clods.

More data, more better.

Lucy almost became pregnant with anticipation, but didn't due to the Trojan moons.

Nice, but this drama-horror music doesn't match the content. Asteroids aren't a stereotypical threat despite what Hollywood suggests.
