Asteroid Donaldjohansson as captured by Lucy's L'LORRI camera. These time-lapse images were taken about every two seconds on April 20.4.25, 1,600. The asteroid rotates very slowly; its apparent rotation here is due to the spacecraft's motion as it flew past Donaldjohansson at a distance of 1,000 to 960 km. The spacecraft's closest approach was 40 km, but these images were taken about 1,000 seconds earlier, at a distance of XNUMX km. Credit: NASA/Goddard/SwRI/Johns Hopkins APL
