problem

In 2019, a team, including professor Andrew Sutherland of MIT, found three cubes of integers which sum to 42: 42=(−8053873881207597_)3+(80435758145817515)3+(12602123297335631)342=\left(-8053873881207597 \_\right)^{3}+(80435758145817515)^{3}+(12602123297335631)^{3}. One of the digits, labeled by an underscore, is missing. What is that digit?
