Answers.Body: <p>At this time, there has been no announcement of a scheduled unlicensed LEGO Space theme.

  <p>However, there is no need to wait and hope that LEGO Space will come back soon. You can still buy all the previously released LEGO Space sets on the secondary market like eBay and BrickLink. You can buy them brand new in the box, or used, or anything in between.

  <p>Also check the going prices for the sets you would like both in new and used condition (all of this is listed in the BrickLink Catalog). Besides buying individual sets on eBay or BrickLink, once you get a sense of what LEGO Space themes you would like to focus on, you can also check on eBay for bulk lots. These will likely be in used condition, and there may be some parts missing, so make sure you read the description carefully. Bulk lots can be great starters for a kid's collection. </p>

Answers.Text: Are you talking about LEGO's webpages for different themes? Those constantly change and come and go. They only keep the ones up and running that currently have products available. For example, the Harry Potter and Jurassic World micro-sites were taken down when the previous products ran their course, but now that new sets are coming the sites will be up again. There has never been a generic Space section on LEGO's website. The specific sub-themes had their own pages with no overarching umbrella theme. Space is not like LEGO City, where the same sub-themes are rotated over and over again.

  Although the stand-alone, unlicensed Space *theme* technically remains discontinued, LEGO has recently released an unlicensed [Space sub-theme *under* their City theme](https://www.lego.com/en-us/themes/city/space).
  
  While these builds seem to be more "near future" than the classic *Space* sets, they can be whatever you want them to be. This is LEGO we are talking about, use your imagination to figure out how these sets might link in with classic *Space* sets or factions or even licensed themes.
  
  For example, you could have the Mars Research Shuttle below land on Titan, where it encounters a legion of Blacktron [Battraxes](https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?S=6941-1) (Battraces?) led by General Sweet Mayhem and must call for help from Iron Man, who arrives in a TIE fighter.
