Camera appears on the top of Spaceship Earth at EPCOT

[Brian]

Not gonna say where exactly, but there's at least one camera like this on each of the other park icons. With that said, they blend in a whole lot better.

I have a feeling it's there to watch for nearby lightning...

New Lightning Rod on Space Ship Earth

Bet that camera on top will provide a stunning view of the lightning bolt that destroys it!

I am surprised that we got to 4 pages in this thread and no one realized it's "THE KISS CAM!!!"

Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy makeover to Spaceship Earth confirmed.

Absolutely 10,000% would ride that.

Eh... 42% chance I'd ride it.

And... 100% chance it'd be Tier 1 in the Genie+ app, so if you wanted to ride it, you'll be bidding for the opportunity.

I wonder how badly that costume needed to be cleaned after the shoot.

I don't know how true this is but I remember reading years ago that supposedly the friend of Mickey who did that commercial shoot ended up wetting himself. I can only imagine how scary it must be to be standing up there in the wind.

I'd imagine this makes it more Harmonious/promotion related, as that seems pretty well finished while the points seemed to be mid testing this week.
