The NASA Apollo 11 Lunar Lander model sits atop a simulated moon surface — a Lego version of Tranquility Base — that uses gray toy bricks to form a crater and astronaut boot prints.

Apollo used a two-stage lander, but it may also be possible to use one- or three-stage versions. They then looked at different propellants and whether the craft should be expendable or reusable.
