Science through Shadows Episode 4: Chasing Polymele's Shadow (English)

Join us as we travel with the Lucy Occultation project, where citizen scientists play a crucial role for NASA’s LUCY mission On February 3, 2023, over 100 telescopes across two continents were deployed to observe the Trojan asteroid Polymele and its satellite during an occultation. In this episode, learn about occultations which occur when an object, like an asteroid, passes in front of a star, momentarily blocking its light and sending a shadow towards Earth’s telescopes. Citizen scientists provide valuable data about the object’s size, shape, and orbit, helping NASA plan for a successful observation of Jupiter’s trojan asteroids.
