Distance to mars
Congratulations – you have traveled over 225 million km to visit a planet we might someday call our second home!
The rockets, rovers, and space station LEGO® sets were inspired by the real vehicles and equipment used by the brave men and women of NASA. First, set designers concepted and sketched mock builds, and brought these prototypes to NASA headquarters in the United States. After meeting with specialists and seeing real rockets and rovers up close, features and functions influenced by the real life technology were added, and the LEGO space sets were completed.
Celebrate man’s first moon landing with this set inspired by NASA’s Apollo 11 Lunar Lander that touched down on the surface of the moon 50 years ago! This collectible model features a detailed replica of Apollo 11's Eagle lunar module, plus a depiction of the lunar surface, complete with crater, footprints and a U.S. flag. Finished with an Apollo 11 Lunar Lander nameplate, this model is perfect for play or display!
On July 20, 1969, humans walked on the moon for the first time in history. The Apollo 11 mission launched on July 16th with a three-person crew consisting of Neil Armstrong, the Commander, Edwin E. Aldrin Jr. (also known as Buzz Aldrin), the Lunar Module Pilot, and Michael Collins, the Command Module Pilot. After reaching the moon, the crew landed in the Sea of Tranquility, collected rock samples, performed scientific research, and took photographs of the moon’s surface. They spent more than 21 hours on the surface of the moon before returning to the orbiting Saturn rocket, and flying home to Earth.
