I rode this one last time on my trip 3 weeks ago. The AA holding the telephone was paralyzed. No movement whatsoever, just dialogue from a static figure.
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...
