Scientists have discovered such an asteroid, which has its own moon too

NASA launched the Lucy mission. In which they sent a spacecraft named Lucy towards 8 asteroids. There was a problem with the solar panel. After fixing this, a surprising thing came in front of the scientists. They got information about an asteroid that also has its moon.

Lucy is a mission launched by NASA. Through this, we have to get information about the formation of our solar system and its early remains. This mission aims to understand the process of formation of other planets around the Earth and the Sun. In this mission, a satellite named Lucy has been sent by NASA into space. NASA believes that asteroids can play an important role in understanding the mystery of the birth of the solar system. They further said that this will also help in understanding the mystery of the origin of life.

Astronomers have been engaged in knowing about polymel for some time now. In this regard, scientist Mark Louis says that the Lucy team wanted to measure the location, size, and shape of the polymel with great accuracy and Lucy informed the team with great accuracy.

Scientists have told that the asteroid’s moon is only 200 kilometers away from it. The diameter of this natural satellite is spread over 5 kilometers. When this asteroid was seen in March, it was located at a distance of 770 million kilometers from Earth. ’12 Years, Seven Asteroids, One Spacecraft’ was the tagline of the Lucy mission. On this, Tom Statler, the scientist of the Lucy mission, says that now we may have to change this tagline and this is a good thing.
