Lego unveils a Space Shuttle Discovery and Hubble telescope set

is the 40th anniversary of the first spacecraft flight and 31 years since its launch. The company worked with NASA to create the kit, which includes the telescope.

The 2,354-piece building, aimed at adults, is a 1:70 scale model of the real thing. This version of Discovery is packed with details, including a functional landing gear, boot doors, elevators and rudder.

You can have the telescope in the boot of the shuttle or display it separately with the extended solar power. The shuttle and telescope each have stands and plates with key data from the STS-31 mission, which launched the Hubble Telescope at Discovery in April 1990.

The Lego NASA Space Shuttle Discovery Kit is available from April 1st. It costs $ 200 / £ 170 / € 180.
