The set's interactive mechanism is its standout feature. A simple crank handle activates four distinct movements: Earth's axial rotation, the sun's axial rotation, lunar orbit around Earth, and Earth's orbit around the sun.

Beyond the captivating visuals, this LEGO set serves as a valuable educational tool. Children can learn about the workings of a crankshaft, while also gaining a better understanding of the relationship between the sun, moon, Earth, and the resulting seasons and moon phases. It's a fantastic value compared to many other LEGO sets that offer limited post-build engagement.
