The '''LMS ''Explorer''''' (alternatively written as '''L.M.S. ''Explorer''''') is a fictional [[Wikipedia:Starship|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 (video game)|''LEGO Rock Raiders'']] tie-in video game. It appears in the game's [[Wikipedia:Full-motion video|full-motion video]] sequences and is mentioned frequently during gameplay. Alternate designs for the ship are featured in Rock Raiders books.
The '''LMS ''Explorer''''' (alternatively written as '''L.M.S. ''Explorer''''') is a fictional [[Wikipedia:Starship|starship]] in the [[LEGO Rock Raiders]] theme.
 
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 [[wikipedia:wormhole|wormhole]], depending on the story. Without enough power to get home, the Rock Raiders are forced to mine a nearby planet for [[power crystal]]s to refuel the ''Explorer''. No parts of the ship were ever released in a set, although unofficial digital recreations of it have been made.
