小惑星152830 Dinkineshの周りを公転している小さな2つの天体の歴史を解明。Lucy探査機がNASAの最初の目的地。その小さな衛星は母天体から分離か。2023年11月1日、LucyがDinkineshに268マイル接近。
Dinkineshは直径720mで、その周りを52.7時間で公転する小衛星Selamを発見。 #NASA #Lucy #Dinkinesh #小惑星 -

A new image from last week's #NASA #LucyMission encounter with the asteroid #Dinkinesh just dropped.
Turns out that the second (previously undiscovered) asteroid in the system is itself a contact binary.

So, they went out into space to look at an asteroid close up, and when they got there, they discovered the asteroid with a name, has a "moon" with no name right on it
And no ones said it yet, but when its named it should reference The Little Prince or its author Antoine de Saint-Exupéry.
I mean look at this. The Little Prince "moon" doesnt just look like him, it seems to portray his whimsy.

Am 1. November passierte die NASA-Raumsonde Lucy einen kleinen Asteroiden in geringem Abstand und lieferte eine Überraschung: Das Objekt Dinkinesh ist ein Doppelkörper.#Asteroid #Dinkinesh #Lucy #Raumsonde #NASA #Raumfahrt #Planetenforschung #Sonnensystem #Planetoid #Asteroidenmond #Astronomie

Hello #Dinky!
NASA's #Lucy spacecraft made a flyby of a small #asteroid Wednesday. The spacecraft successfully passed by the asteroid #Dinkinesh, an asteroid about one kilometer across in the main asteroid belt. #NASA said in a statement that the spacecraft was in good health, although the spacecraft had yet to return images and other data collected during the flyby. That flyby was primarily a test of spacecraft systems ahead of future flybys of Trojan asteroids.
