On my other cameras, the Multicolor Visible Imaging Camera will take panorama images. Long-Range Reconnaissance Imager high resolution, you will get close up images. In addition to the cameras, Lucy to the spectrometer and it also has a device for mapping the temperature.
These calibration images were taken in February this year as part of the procedure to check that the instruments are sufficiently sensitive and accurate. In November 2021, some images were shared right after Lucy’s launch.
