I think Eddie is a shock because he was so engaged with the community and active on socials until very recently. I think he was the greatest vocal online champion of DLP from the founding Imagineers and will be greatly missed for that contribution.
There's been a lot of refurbishment work in Discoveryland this year, but the Hyperion airship itself is in dire need of one
Saw some pictures from earlier this week and it's looking rough to say the least

They seem to be doing incremental 3rd shift work on it without walling it off. We saw some in April.
I saw pictures showing they finished fixing one of the signs outside too!

It appears that Nine-Eye from Le Visionarium has been removed from the background of the refurbished Buzz Lightyear attraction. According to a member of the French forum, a form of Le Visionarium tribute may be planned for Discoveryland. Has anyone heard anything concrete about this?
Even if the film itself felt dated by the early 2000s, Le Visionarium remains the attraction I miss most. It was foundational to Discoveryland’s identity and overarching storyline. Bringing Nine-Eye and Timekeeper back in some form would make far more sense than letting them quietly fade away, especially given how central that attraction was to the land’s original vision.

According to the rumor, possibly the same you mention, this could come happen in the Discoveryland Railroad Station, although it's not known what it could be. To be honest, with the works ending in Fantasyland Station, Discovery is the one that looks the worst. If Disney was to have the train work as it should once more, a revamp would be needed and tying it with Le Vis would be great, especially since it already shares the same soundtrack (as you arrive and leave Disco on the train)!

Only 3 more years should do it.

Was this slower than World of Frozen?
On time vs complexity it probably beats it.
