Interesting connection made between the use of the Sovereign's "Universal Neural Teleportation Network" and the concept art! So "Jump Points" will be expected a lot within the attraction. Also the previous permit filings with the inclusion of Spitz Inc as the supplier, pushes this more toward Disney using projection domes and spheres to create this "Jump Point" effect!

At least four of them... wasn't that how many Spaceship Earth's could fit in this building?

Didn’t @marni debunk this theory?

Volume wise it might be accurate.

Thanks for the reply but what do you mean by that?

If you look at the size of the buildings themselves, then no, you couldn’t fit any Spaceship Earths in the GotG building. But if you look at it as a matter of total space available inside each building, GotG can hold 4 times as much as SSE could.

Yes it is.

Could 4 Spaceship Earths fit into the GotG Gravity Building? Obviously not by height as SE is taller, but by volume?
SE Diameter is 165 feet.
Volume of SE =4/3* pi *(d/2)^3 = ~2,352,069 ft ^3
Volume of 4 SE=~9,408,276 ft^3

GotG is a rectangular prism, Height = 133 feet, area of concrete pour = 72,000 sqft
Volume of GotG gravity building = 9,576,000 ft^3

Surprisingly close, but he is right!

This is just for the Gravity Building FYI

Yes it is.

Gotcha....I thought Marni shot down the whole idea of them installing spheres into the dome.
Although I do agree with everyone that this attraction could of gone in another park, but I’m very excited about what this project could be.

Correct, I believe he's said they won't be spheres that you enter ala the big finale of Gringott's. That doesn't rule out other types of projection surfaces like columns or flat surfaces. In Martin's old layout of the attraction I believe it kinda looks like you circle around some central cylinders or something

Don’t think so.... I maybe said no FJ type parking inside a dome.

 

[IMDREW]

False. Though there's likely to be 'scenes' and they may contain projections. But, there's no giant dome in the BBB like a one-time patent application had people surmising.

Remember, when you surmise, you make a sur out of mi and se.

I thought Marni debunked that projection domes theory too, but it was Mister Penguin. So are there projection domes coming after all? I love the thought of that.

And I win 20 bucks. During my viewing of the film, I bet that the jump point scene would be the roller coaster's theme.

Notice I said no **giant** dome, like the one in the patent. And that I said there would be likely to be projections, but not on one giant dome. I said nothing about not having smaller domes for projections.

Pic of the new color scheme, second spine is only primed I think?

Did you happen to get any pics from the monorail?

Gray and Rust is the final color palette?

I think the rust is some kind of undercoating or something to give it a worn look
