Mission:Space update (confirmed)

[CanadianGordon]

Honestly I'm looking forward to seeing how they change this. Glad it's an update. Guessing Gary was too expensive... Or not available.

 

[No Name]

Great choice! Excited to see the whole refreshed attraction in a few days.

It's possible they simply didn't want him.

It will be nice if Gina gives Mission: SPACE some personality.

Mission: Earth

Well, now we know the source of the erroneous rumor that the green and orange missions are being renamed earth and mars missions... a CM who read one sign....

It seems no where else are the missions referred thusly. Which, in a way, is a flub on Disney's part to have several different names: Mars or Earth? Orange or Green? More intense or Less intense?

Hopefully this means less "protein spills"

This feels like an upgrade. I have ridden this ride only twice in it's previous form and found it...um...lacking. No desire to ride again. However...the Earth side looks fun. A space version of a small screen Soarin. I'll be down there again in a few weeks and will check it out. I can see this attraction getting a small surge of interest and attention. Overall I would say this is a net gain.

Um, no. As impressive as Martin's online work is, he does have a real world career at a TV studio.

Either way, "having a YouTube account" seems like a crude way to describe the detailed and exhaustive work of Martinsvids.com, doesn't it?

Editing is his actual day job. That's why his Disney videos, which are strictly a hobby and something he does to enrich the Disney Parks community, show so much polish.

I gotta say, if my 11-year old self had ridden that, I'd probably have left the ride begging my Mom to let me be an astronaut.

So is Orange exactly the same as before?

It would be nice if these people would record it.

I'm really disappointed that Orange is almost exactly the same but with Gina... They could have at least changed the music as well. Green however I actually like better than Orange. It's fresher and the storm scene is really cool.

Also Destiny has been removed from the exit hallway.

Also Destiny has been removed from the exit hallway.

have they actually themed the exit hallway?

Would have been nice to have a new orange Mission but I agree, this is an upgrade. This & Dinosaurs latest are the kind of upgrades I like...enhancing rides in logical ways. The green side will open up this attraction to a whole new younger audience, who will love it.

Just rode orange!
Some new music
Orange is beautiful!
I swear it pushes you harder and longer in terms of gforces. I never had issues pushing the button but man...launch and Mars reentry FEELS way more intense now. Might be me though.

So... A higher altitude version of Soarin' then.
