Maybe Lapis Lazulis are meant to gather information about other planets and share it with Homeworld. Lapis can project her memories on a mirror like surface made of water. And she can travel great distances in space over a short period of time, thanks to her wings.

It may be possible that Lapis was sent to Earth as some sort of scout, as she said she was not supposed to be there for long. The Rebellion must have happened after she arrived, because she was caught in the middle of it, suggesting that she wasn't meant to spy on the Crystal Gems and report back(which would have been a useful wartime purpose).
