NASA's Lucy mission has taken a significant step forward as it successfully deploys its expansive solar arrays within the controlled environment of the thermal vacuum chamber at Lockheed Martin Space in Littleton, Colorado.
Impressively, each of these two circular arrays boasts an impressive span of nearly 24 feet (7.3 m).
These exceptionally capable arrays are poised to play a pivotal role in fueling Lucy's remarkable 12-year expedition through the enigmatic realm of the Jupiter Trojan asteroids.
