To solve this challenge, I developed a poem, as the objective was to either inform, inspire, or communicate with others about the Lucy Mission. The way I decided to solve it was by hopefully communicating and informing others the main ideas of the Lucy Mission, in an easier to understand way so more people can get interested.
I think the main benefits of my project would be that it is formatted in a way that I think is easier to grasp for most people. Even though, most of the time, poems are flowery and hard to understand, I think this poem is more compressed and focuses on subjects that are easier to recognize for most people, and help others get interested in the future of space exploration and astrobiology.
All of the data I used were from NASA websites, as it contained pages upon pages of information that I think would be useful for my project, as I was able to compress that information down.
I had a lot of fun doing Space Apps, even though I actually have multiple big tests tomorrow! It helped me stay motivated to learn more, especially since I'm interested in astrobiology, and I feel like specifically this challenge ties in a bit with that. My approach to doing this project was kind of just trying to get as much as I can to the best of my ability in on time! A big challenge that I had while doing this was obviously studying for all my tests and doing my homework while having to turn this in on time, but I was able to resolve it with some of my friends helping me make study guides and study for my tests!

This project has been submitted for consideration during the Judging process.
NASA’s Lucy Mission to the Trojan asteroids will survey eight asteroids in six independent orbits around the Sun to help unravel the history of the solar system. Your challenge is to illustrate the diversity Lucy will explore by creating a work of art in the medium of your choice, including, but not limited to painting, drawing, pottery, sculpture, 2D or 3D computer-generated products, music, film/video, written or spoken word, dance, or textile.
