Wow! NASA’s asteroid watcher, Lucy, seen in the sky during Earth flyby- shone like diamond

[ad_1] Astronomers have spotted NASA’s Lucy spacecraft in the sky during its near-Earth flyby. It was shining like a diamond! The iconic rock band Beatles, gave the world the unforgettable song, Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds. Its references in the real world keep coming back (remember Australopithecus afarensis?).
