Satellite Skies

These marvel of technology fly silently over us, conducting research, providing communications and helping us find our way. They record marvelous images of the cosmos and stunning views of our planet. They would not be possible without STEM.

One turn of the rocket booster deploys the solar arrays, using a combination of gears, levers and gravity. It will also rotate the communication antennas, simulating power generated from the solar panels.

Since the weight of satellites must be minimized, this model contains only 155 parts. Let's send some LEGO in space!
