Kathy Sullivan gave her expert view on the future of space exploration to LEGO, including: “the biggest barriers to space tourism in the next 30 years is the safety and costs elements, if we can break through these the general public really could take a trip to space in the future. With 32% thinking it will involve very expensive and exclusive journeys into the atmosphereĭr. As the mission draws to a close, NASA is taking a look back at the scientific accomplishments of SOFIA and some of the feats of engineering that let it fly. Over half (52%) think there will be space tourism in the next 30 years. The Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy was a mission of discovery, revealing unseen and sometimes unseeable parts of our universe. Space and STEM Summer Schools for students to meet and work with Astronauts, NASA personnel and world-renowned Scientists and launch their experiments into.71% of people believe there is life on other planets.24% of people believe that we will find new planets and 13% think we will find alien life in the next 30 years.Finding out more about the universe and making scientific discoveries listed as the number one reason people believe we should travel to Space, with understanding more about Earth taking second spot.72% of people label Space exploration as being “essential”.Including, what the next 30 years could hold, the future of space travel and if there really is life on mars. Just over 30 years on from the original mission, The LEGO Group wanted to delve deeper into people’s passions for space to really uncover what they think of the great beyond. This LEGO model is a great way for LEGO builders and space fans alike to get excited about space travel and learn more about the famous mission in a fun and engaging way.” Hubble is definitely the highlight of my career. Looking at the model, it was great to reminisce about my experiences in space launching the telescope for the first time. space exploration innovations from NASA and commercial partners.
The mission launched from Kennedy Space Center, Florida, on September 29, 1988, and landed four days later on October 3, 1988. At Kennedy Space Center, get up close to space shuttle Atlantis, travel to the Red. Kathy Sullivan said, “I was thrilled to see the space shuttle in LEGO form, and was very impressed by the amount of intricate detail they have managed to recreate from the module where we used to sleep and eat through to what we called the “milk stalls” on the telescope. STS-26 was the 26th NASA Space Shuttle mission and the seventh flight of the orbiter Discovery. Both also come with a display plaque which features key data from the mission.Ĭommenting on the set, Dr. The new LEGO NASA Space Shuttle Discovery, which was developed in collaboration with NASA, is a complex 2,354 piece build that pays homage to this pioneering moment in space history and marks the 40th anniversary since the first Space Shuttle flight on 12th of April 1981. The set, aimed at adults, features the Discovery orbiter with functional landing gear, payload bay doors, elevons and rudder and the famous Hubble Space Telescope, which can either be folded and contained within the payload bay or expanded with solar array and displayed separately.
