The success of the Artemis II mission around the moon has garnered worldwide interest. If you are still in a celebratory mood or wish to commemorate this achievement in space exploration, you’re in for a treat: NASA and the European Space Agency (ESA) have collaborated with LEGO to introduce a 632-piece model, the Artemis Space Launch System Rocket.

This set includes the Artemis spacecraft and the thruster rockets that launch it beyond Earth’s gravitational pull, as well as a launch platform equipped with a hand crank to showcase the rocket in all three phases of launch. Cranking the handle gradually elevates the rocket, causing the thruster rockets to detach.

The set comes with four miniature astronaut figures, representing the four-member Artemis II crew, and features an information panel with crucial mission information.

Recommended for ages 9 and older, this set also makes an excellent gift for any adult LEGO fan. Due to high demand, it is presently out of stock on Amazon, Walmart, and the LEGO website. However, if you place an order today through LEGO.com, you can anticipate delivery in 60 days when inventory is replenished.

Should you encounter any difficulties with assembly, LEGO offers interactive, 3D building instructions via their Builder app, which is accessible for users on both iOS and Android.
