The new set has figurines that study dinosaurs, map the stars, and perform lab experiments.
The kit was created by actual geophysicist Ellen Kooijman, the company says.

"I love Legos," Charlotte wrote, but said there are "barely any Lego girls." When she saw the sets at the store, she noticed all the female Legos did was "sit at home, go to the beach, and shop," while the male toys "saved people, had jobs, even swam with sharks!"
The little girl's letter went viral, with the company itself responding a few days later, telling Charlotte, "we have been very focused on including more female characters and themes that invite even more girls to build."
Lego wrote that they were considering a female set just two days after Charlotte's letter went viral, though it's possible it was just a coincidence.
