I'm going to go see a movie with my gf now (A Christmas Carol) and will be thinking about Space Stations and SpaceWindows while watching the movie. :lookaroun TTYL everyone. :wave:

Oooh. Looks new and shiny, will have to see whats different first hand. Well it will be interesting to see anyway!

the panneling is from 1975...it was all that came about of an expansive RCA Communications Network queue.....and that was scrapped before the ride opened so all we got was faux storage panneling and a switchback. Had it been built it would have been an intense version of the Mission to Mars mission control booth with tons of video monitors and mainframe computers.

Wrong ,the Im sure the panneling to look like boxes where added for the Fed X remodel I dont remember this in 1975 I rode it a lot in those years

I'm liking what I see so far. It looks like those black areas in the new ceiling could be video screens.

Wow ... it looks great, glad to see they gave it this much love.

Can't wait to see more.

Is it possible that they're openings in the queue ceilings that show a glimpse of the mountain ceiling effects? Perhaps it's not a full enclosure afterall?

Is anyone else having trouble with the Disney Parks blog? For a couple of days now I've tried it on different computers at different locations (IE, different ISPs) and have had no luck. It's slow to load, the stylesheet doesn't load, and few of the pictures will load either. I haven't been able to see the pix of the queue.

Just checked, it's working fine for me... But I typically use Google Reader anyways - it's so much easier to read my favorite blogs that way! Can't recommend it enough.

No, if definitely is. That ceiling is a separate effect from the ones in the mountain, just like Disneyland's queue has the HD video of the planet rotating.

It's possible, but that satellite-like object in the closest area doesn't appear to be skewered correctly to be a dome effect.

Thanks, dweezil78. Just lucky me, I guess. :lol:

 

[MKtacosRthebest]

Did they combine the switch backs into one queue? The picture makes the switchbacks look longer than before. :shrug:

 

[WDWFigment]

This looks awesome, so far. Wonder if we'll have any soft openings today?

 

[amypooh]

Glad to know the interior got some TLC. I wonder what the rest looks like?

did you notice the 2nd picture??

 

[CBug88]

I'm likin' what I see so far!:sohappy:

 

[Lisalyn]

How cool is that!

 

[BrerFrog]

Oh my!
I love it! My favorite WDW attraction is now cooler than ever!

I am calling in right now and booking my next trip. Well, actually not. But this makes me much more excited for the next time I visit the World. As if I needed even more reasons to go back.

Nothing so far this morning
