We Build LEGO Hubble Space Telescope: a Miniature Homage to Cosmic Discovery

Ever since I was a child, I've always been fascinated by space. I would look up at the night sky and dream of one day becoming an astronaut, endlessly exploring the cosmos. Then I got older and decided that being stuck in a small spacecraft for months on end probably wasn't a great idea (thanks, anxiety). But my love for space still lives on, and when I saw that LEGO announced a replica of the Hubble Space Telescope, I knew I had to have it.

LEGO partnered with NASA and the European Space Agency (ESA), the two agencies responsible for building the Hubble Space Telescope, to create an accurate replica commemorating the 35th anniversary of its launch. You can purchase the LEGO Hubble Space Telescope now from Amazon and the LEGO Store.

LEGO is no stranger to making space-themed sets, with plenty of other NASA replicas available including the massive Artemis Space Launch System and the Mars Rover Perseverence, as well as sets based on popular space franchises like Star Trek and the recent Project Hail Mary. But, what I really want is for LEGO to bring back some of the classic 90's space sets like Exploriens and Spyrius – those were the best.

LEGO Hubble Space Telescope is built in three major sections spread across nine bags: the stand, the back portion that houses the instrument bay, and the narrower shaft on the front. This was a very relaxing set to put together, and pairs rather nicely with a space-themed synthwave playlist.
