adding objects to array

I believe my syntax is correct, but maybe I am not understanding the question correctly.

script.js 
var objects = [
  ];

var object_a = {object1: 'thing1', object2: 'things2'};
var object_b = {object3: 'things3', object4: 'things4'};
var object_c = {object5: 'thing5', object6: 'things6'};

objects.push(object_a);
objects.push(object_b);
objects.push(object_c);
index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
  <meta charset="utf-8">
  <title>JavaScript Objects</title>
</head>
<body>
<script src="script.js"></script>
</body>
</html>

Technically yes, but they want you to just add it directly into the array initialization. 

var objects = [
  {object1: 'thing1', object2: 'things2'},
  {object3: 'things3', object4: 'things4'},
  {object5: 'thing5', object6: 'things6'}
];
