<span itemprop="description">I loved building this set. Plus, it was very easy to motorize (easy to find on the internet), which I highly recommend doing. The orbital movements are beautiful!
I like this so much that I now wish LEGO would come out with the entire Solar System as a large Technic Adults Welcome build! Go for it, LEGO!</span>

<span itemprop="name">Fabulous set</span>
<span itemprop="description">l love the Space themed Lego so when l saw this set l had to have it. The price is a little high but once you start building it's worth it!
The mechanism is very complicated but straightforward if you follow the instructions carefully. Once completed the model operates well and is great to turn the handle and watch it all
working.
A few have commented that it isn't to scale.
Of course it isn't, it would be impossible. But the timings are correct including the moon phase, which is amazing.
And someone commented that the model is incorrect because in reality the "sun doesn't rotate in relation to the Earth" Yes it does. The sun rotates once every 27 days. And the model is again accurate in this respect.</span>
