<p><span style="font-size:24px;"><strong>Can you imagine how awesome the spacecraft and bases on planets will look like in 100+ years as humans start to explore the cosmos?&nbsp;</strong></span></p>

<p><span style="font-size:24px;"><strong>Using LEGO Bricks, we&rsquo;re looking for our greatest intrepid explorers on LEGO Ideas to build space exploration vehicles and planetary bases!&nbsp;</strong></span></p>

<p><span style="font-size:24px;"><strong>Space scooters, hoverboards and balloons could work to get people where they need to go. But what about when they get there? We&rsquo;d also love to see crazy futuristic homes for Minifigures to stay in, filled with futuristic tech.&nbsp;</strong></span></p>

<p><span style="font-size:24px;"><strong>Your submissions should use between 150 - 250 elements, in order to be accepted in this challenge. No IP references will be allowed, and be sure to start your submission title with either &#39;Base:&#39; or &#39;Vehicle:&#39; depending on your submission.</strong></span></p>

<p><span style="font-size:24px;"><strong>Two winners of the Fan Vote for this challenge will have the exclusive opportunity to see their submission transformed into an official LEGO Ideas Insiders Reward set! One base and one vehicle will be selected.&nbsp;</strong></span></p>

<p><span style="font-size:24px;"><strong>The Fan Vote for this challenge will feature a maximum of 30 submissions, made up of 50% vehicles and 50% bases.&nbsp;</strong></span></p>

<p>As a Grand Prize winner of this contest, you will get the exclusive opportunity to have your model transformed into a new LEGO Ideas Insiders Reward set and 10 copies of the final set. On top of that, you will also receive the following:&nbsp;</p>

<ul>
