Just wanted to throw this out regarding a potential 2022 opening date - according to Huan Phan's LinkedIn page (https://www.linkedin.com/in/huanphan/) the ride is opening in 2022. He worked on the project from August 2018 through March 2020. Of course though the 2022 date on his LinkedIn could be a typo or wrong or out of date.

Speaking of which, did the Star Wars overlay of Space Mountain at Disneyland ever end?
Yes. It became seasonal, to only run during the month of May (for May the 4th). Assumedly they would have done the same this year had the park been open. There's also a Halloween variant for September/October. At all other times it's normal Space Mountain.

It was Star Wars when I went in November 2019, not sure if it changed after.

UPDATE: Hyperspace Mountain ran from May 4, 2019 to January 6, 2020. The previous year in 2018 it only ran from May 4-June 3.

Ah, right. In 2019 I believe it was to celebrate the opening of Galaxy's Edge (and shift some of the Star Wars fans to other parts of the park). But the 2018 schedule was supposed to be the norm.

So are they two car trains, or four car trains? I see two more cars behind the uncovered. If so that is 16 seats per car.
While it doesn't confirm anything, the GotG poster has 5 car trains. I doubt they'd go with 2 car on a coaster this large built in the modern day. I also believe they were testing a 5 car train (one rotating car, 4 empty/dummy/weight cars) on the temporary shuttle coaster over at Vekoma (well over) a year ago.

Okay so 20 per car. Pretty good.

I'm a fan of the individual lap bars instead of a shared bar for both passengers. I'm pretty much a twig so I like my lap bar tight. I still haven't seen the movies, but I'm looking forward to this ride. The rotating cars seem interesting.
