EVSN - Trojan Asteroids: Understanding the Past to Explore the Future

The 365 Days of Astronomy - A podcast by 365DaysOfAstronomy.org

From March 3, 2021. Just how were the Trojan asteroids in orbit with Jupiter discovered? And how were they named? We take a look back at these objects as we get closer to the launch of the Lucy spacecraft. Plus, a cluster of galaxies, a meteoroid explosion at Jupiter, seafloor microbes, wildfires, and an interview with Fraser Cain, publisher of Universe Today and co-host of Astronomy Cast!   We've added a new way to donate to 365 Days of Astronomy to support editing, hosting, and production costs.  Just visit: https://www.patreon.com/365DaysOfAstronomy and donate as much as you can!
