Description I made these as Christmas gifts for my family almost a year and a half ago, but I only got them to my family last December. Anyhow, since the gifts are given I can post photos now.

My dad worked on the original Hubble Space Telescope mission, so I made him a space telescope. I think this is probably my most complex design ever. It took about 8 hours to construct.

The box is based on this image:

Oh my goodness, this is beautiful!  I envy your father; I wish I had been anywhere near the Hubble mission.

For most of my childhood he was working on various things for NOAA and NASA. We actually got to watch a live broadcast of the shuttle launch that was taking Hubble up.
