, a joint venture of Boeing (NYSE: BA) and Lockheed Martin (NYSE: LMT), has been selected to provide launch services for NASA’s first mission to study the Trojan asteroids orbiting with Jupiter.
ULA said Thursday it will deploy an Atlas V 401 rocket to send the Lucy spacecraft in October 2021 from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida.
“Our Atlas V rocket has launched 79 times achieving 100 percent mission success, and we look forward to working again with our mission partners to explore our universe,â€Â said ULA President and CEO Tory Bruno.
NASA estimates that the Lucy mission will cost $148.3M, including the launch service and mission-related support.
The agency selected Lockheed two years ago to design, build and operate the spacecraft during a 12-year journey to investigate seven asteroids around Jupiter.
