The LMS Explorer (alternatively written as L.M.S. Explorer) is a fictional starship in the LEGO Rock Raiders theme. The ship was designed by artists at Data Design Interactive and model builders at LEGO Futura for the LEGO Rock Raiders tie-in video game. It appears in the game's full-motion video sequences and is mentioned frequently during gameplay. Alternate designs for the ship are featured in Rock Raiders books.

The Explorer is a large mining ship used by the titular Rock Raiders while they explore the galaxy. In the theme's story, the ship is damaged by asteroids and knocked off-course or into a wormhole, depending on the story. Without enough power to get home, the Rock Raiders are forced to mine a nearby planet for power crystals to refuel the Explorer. No parts of the ship were ever released in a set, although unofficial digital recreations of it have been made.
