​NASA launched the Lucy Spacecraft to observe which celestial body?​

Correct option is C

NASA launched the Lucy spacecraft to observe Jupiter's Trojan asteroids, which orbit the Sun in Jupiter's orbit.

Trojan asteroids are celestial objects that orbit Jupiter in the same orbit as it, but at two different points — the L4 and L5 Lagrangian points.

These asteroids are called "time capsules" because scientists believe they are objects from the early days of the solar system's formation and can provide important information about the history of the solar system.

Lucy Mission:
Launched on October 16, 2021.
Lucy will visit 8 different asteroids over a 12-year mission, including 1 main belt asteroid and 7 Trojan asteroids.
