In line with the release of the new space-inspired LEGO City sets, the LEGO Ideas website has announced a new building contest that will challenge builders to come up with their most out-of-this-world brick creations using LEGO bricks. Imagine a space vehicle capable of traveling from your minifigure moon base to the mysterious red planet. Or find ways on how you can help NASA achieve this dream and demonstrate it using your very own original LEGO creation. Watch the video below by astronaut Mike Massimino announcing the LEGO Ideas From the Moon to Mars building contest.
