Another space theme came to light at Lego Con during a guest appearance of former NASA astronaut Mike Massimino, who flew two space shuttle missions to repair the Hubble Space Telescope and was the first person to tweet from space. Massimino discussed life as an astronaut, NASA’s forthcoming Artemis moon program that aims to put astronauts on the surface later in the decade, and Lego’s ongoing efforts to recreate real-life spacecraft as Lego sets.
