![]() I bought this set yesterday (can't resist a 20% sale!) and spent about four hours assembling it. Lower age bracket (8 yrs) seems about right, upper age cutoff never is :). Only the main model is supplied in the instructions. Spacesuit, gold visor), one scientist (glasses, tie and security pass), and two technicians (blue jumpsuits, red caps). Also included: a small gray blockhouse for mission control, one "apollo" spaceman (white The pad itself is mostly gray, and rolls on wheels along the roadway. ![]() Both crane and rig move forward and back on rails. Includes a tall (about 25 bricks high) red gantry with a crane on top for lifting the components and a rig at its base for supporting the tank/booster combination. Launch pad is built on two baseplates: one full (city) size, green with straight gray roadway the other half-size, rectangular, and all green. Cargo bay holds one satellite and robot arm. As for me, I have a whole new theme to start collecting.Ī white one-person shuttle, white with black heat shield. It appears from the included catalog that the whole Launch Command theme goes together well with few duplications for example, the shuttles in 63 have different fuselage numbers. This set fits into a Town setting better than the current Space themes, mainly because the color scheme is unique. Scale: Mini-Figure scale, fits well into any Town which needs a spaceport. 3 1x1 round plates (white, yellow, clear-red).None, except for a lot of good design ideas.Review Written: 2 February 1995 by Kevin S.

EST.LEGO® Set Review: 6339 Shuttle Launch Pad 6339 NASAalready has plans to redo the launch pads after the shuttle?s retirement, andprepare them for the Ares I rockets that will carry the Orioncapsule replacing the shuttle. She added that the total cost for the flame trench facelift was expectedto fall under $2.7 million. ?Thatrepair will remain intact until the end of the shuttle program,? Willcoxonsaid. Brick removal starts Friday and ends on July 19, and the wall repairis slated to go from the third week of July until the third week of August. Therepair effort would allow plentyof time for the Atlantis launch to proceed as planned, NASA officialsconfirmed. ![]() NASAhas two launch pads for Atlantis and the remaining shuttle missions, but willneed both ready for the Hubblerepair mission in case a second shuttle must fly on a rescue mission.That?s because the Hubble Space Telescope sits in a different orbit than theInternational Space Station, and so Atlantis would be unable to reach the safehaven of the orbital outpost during an emergency. ![]() NASAcrews plans to work with an outside contractor to repair the damaged east wall,but will also replace a 25-foot high by 80-foot wide section of the west wall?sbricks using a spray-on, heat resistant material. However, simulations run by theengineers showed that none of the bricks flew up near the pad surface, andtherefore posed no possible risk to the space shuttle.Įrosionhas similarly taken its toll on the intact west wall of the flame trench. Thethrust from Discovery?s engines blasted 3,500 bricks (newly revised estimate)from the wall and left them strewn across 1,500 feet (457 meters) between theflame trench and the pad?s perimeter fence. ![]()
