SCIENCE students have constructed a phenomenal 30,500-piece Lego model of the iconic Lovell Telescope at Jodrell Bank.

The encoders are attached via 3D-printed components to track the motion of the telescope accurately. It can then be paired over Bluetooth with a smartphone running an app like Skysafari.

Let us know if you build one or a derivative. This telescope looks much different than other builds we’ve seen. If you want to do it all old school, we’ve seen a great guide.
