Artist's impression of so-called Trojan Asteroids - which are thought to be some of the most ancient asteroids in the Solar System, they were drawn into Jupiter's orbit by it's huge gravitational pull and subsequently have been orbiting the Sun with Jupiter. NASA launched a probe to investiage these objects in 2021. The 12-year Lucy Mission will provide a unique insight into the formation of our Solar System - Photo: Geopix/NASA
