Truth is out there as mysterious crop circles are exposed

Although it's large enough to be seen from the sky, it can now be revealed the creators are very much carbon-based earthlings from LEGO Australia.

Tapping into the curiosity of the space explorers of tomorrow (kids), the LEGO team created a crop circle 50 metres in diameter and its design incorporated the iconic LEGO Minifigure head and hand.

A new study by The LEGO Group reveals that 70% of children aged 6-12 want to travel to space.

Lego Group Australia vice president Troy Taylor said he was "thrilled" to nurture the next generation's curiosity towards space.

"This will broaden their horizons to embrace the potential that lies beyond our planet," he said.

Content creator and astrophysicist Kobi Brown went to Narromine to see the crop circle come to life.

He described it as a "surreal" experience.

"Coming in, I didn't know what to expect so I got to discover the crop circle like it was real - walking through waist high sorghum fields and passing hazmat suit-wearing 'investigators' to stand in this pretty epic set of concentric circles and geometric designs," he said.

"Crop circles are often associated with extraterrestrial activity in popular culture and play into the mysteries surrounding space, and beyond.

"It was great to work with LEGO Australia to inspire the space generation, calling on them to engage with the wider universe and its wonders."
