The LEGO Group Celebrates Children's Curiosity About Space & Asks Them To Explore Space Their Way

After global research revealed that 86 percent of kids are interested in finding new planets, stars and galaxies, the LEGO Group asked children across the world to share their visions of how they would like to explore the cosmos.
The result was truly incredible and, with the help of Associate Master Builder at the LEGO House, Didac Perez Soriano, a selection of these spacecrafts were reimagined in LEGO bricks.
Last night, the LEGO Group showcased the most unique and creative space vehicles - playfully coined Unidentified Playing Objects (UPOs) - with an epic drone display above the New York skyline.
The show included a space bed UPO powered by butterfly wings complete with a snack drawer for long journeys, a turtle spaceship that walks on the moon, a dog spaceship with 360 windows to see all that space has to offer, and a dinosaur ship with a jetpack, among others.
Live from today, the LEGO Group is also working with the International Astronomical Union to reimagine the constellations. Kids are invited to see space as a playground for their imagination by submitting their own ‘Funstellation’ via the LEGO website. Simply connect the stars on the map and tell us what incredible things you see.
