Ha, this might explain the random wall of planters hiding nothing sitting near connections cafe a few days ago. It does look a tad dated so a minor refresh would be appreciated!

Given the current trend, they will either just paint it blue or they will paint some movie characters on the planets.

I'd work on making the attraction worth visiting.

I hope they don't destroy this attraction with their "refresh".

Sad news -- i was hoping it could be next on the chopping block for replacement lol.

I think this is being done due to the bad press their condition was getting on some sites. That being said, it didnt work for the monorails, so this must have been really cheap to do.

The entrance area has opened up and the moveable planters have shifted over to the area around the Mission: SPACE and Space 220 signs.

Photos from today - Planet Earth was removed a few weeks ago and the left side has recently reopened after pavement work.

This is a great thing in the vein of EPCOT of old.

Surprising. Small upgrade here, another one at MuppetVision. It's almost like somebody remembered how things are supposed to work at WDW.

Can they refresh the interior too? As in, replace it with a new ride??

Rode it last month for the first time since 2003. Made me remember why I waited 20 years to do it twice.

I am a bit surprised that MS is still hanging on.

Agreed though I have completely written off WoL.

My biggest issue is that whenever I ride, the video is not smooth. It feels like I’m watching YouTube with a weak internet connection. On Orange Team, it makes me more dizzy.

I seem to remember reading here that we were originally supposed to get a dark ride about the history and future of space exploration, in addition to the nauseating migraine factory simulator that we have now. But naturally the company that has more money than Midas ran out of money when building the pavilion. I’ve ridden this attraction once when it originally opened, felt like absolute garbage the rest of the day, and haven’t, and won’t, return. Not to belabor the point, but the fact that we lost Horizons for this- just…hurtful.


It’d be like if they went to Niagara Falls, excavated it, redirected the water, paved over the surrounding land, and replaced it with a DVD loop of a film about the water cycle. That somehow also made you sick.

It's a great attraction, I love it, it's a lot of fun, i ride it several times each day, never been ill or had a headache. Odd that, why on earth is that I wonder?
