With this 251-piece engineering kit you'll have everything you need to build your own version of a Mars rover and nine other space-themed machines.

The 80-page, step-by-step manual guides you as you build:

Equipped with a infrared remote that can control up to three different motors, you can make your machines move forward or backward, turn, and use their robotic arms to pick up real-life terrestrial specimen.

A full-color, 64-page step-by-step illustrated manual helps kids assemble all of the models and teaches them about real-world examples of the outer space robots, vehicles and devices they are creating. Read about the various technical features of the Mars Curiosity rover. Learn about the history of Mars exploration, robotics in satellites, deep-space exploration, and the robots in popular space-related science fiction.
