The LEGO Company, one of the world's leading toy companies, teamed up with Space Media, Inc.(TM) and RSC Energia to conduct the first-ever toy experiment performed on the International Space Station (I.S.S.). The LEGO? Life on Mars "Red Planet Protector" set, along with 300 miniature LEGO aliens, blasted into outer space on the Soyuz 206 ("2S") launch from Baikonur, Kazakhstan, Russia to the I.S.S.
"Using LEGO Life on Mars toys to perform the first toy-based experiment on the I.S.S. is exciting, because kids are learning about science and space in a fun, new and creative way," says Yuri Baturin, flight engineer on the Soyuz 206. "This is a one-of-a-kind, breakthrough experiment that's never been done before."

Next stop, Cloud City: Action figures from the upcoming "Star Wars" movie will be taking a real ride to the fringes of the atmosphere next month during JP Aerospace's "Away 26" high-altitude balloon mission.

But the first TOY EVER in space was the YO-YO.
