Space is no longer the final frontier... if you're a Lego fan, that is.

The toy company has just launched an out-of-this-world Lego set based on the Nasa Space Shuttle Discovery. The set, which is made up of 2,354 pieces, is a detailed recreation of the STS-31 mission launched in April 1990, which saw Discovery and its five crew members deploy the Hubble Space Telescope into the cosmos.
