NASA Artemis Space Launch System
New and exclusive to LEGO, the NASA Artemis Space Launch System is based on the real-life Artemis mission. During the Artemis I mission, Orion travelled farther than any other spacecraft built for humans and with Artemis III, NASA will land the first woman and first person of colour on the Moon.
This set is a highly detailed recreation of the launch system, from the multi-stage rocket right down to the Orion capsule and mobile launch tower.
