Sounds more like a simulator than anything else.

We knew from the beginning M:S would have something to do with simulated space flight, but I would'nt get down on Disney just yet. Spiderman at IOA is a simulator too, but it's unlike any other sim in the world. I have a feeling M:S will be at least on a par with Spiderman, and hopefully it won't have the technical difficulties that TT seems to have ALL THE TIME. :lol: I can't wait to ride it.
Cheers :wave:

1) Bless your heart Mission:Space! Horizon ruled! You'd have loved it, I'm sure!
2) Nothing is ever wrong with a well done simulator ride....Here's hoping Disney does it right!

Having seen it... I can't comment on it, but this is going knock your socks off.
Simulator BWAH!!!! This isn't 1980's technology simulation... this is high tech and you will be blown away.

I Think I have another reason why they tore it down,Horizens was about the 20th century,now we are IN
The 20th Century.And who wants to ride it when it's about today?
We are in the 21st century now, right?
A few weeks ago, there was a show on the Travel Channel about Disney Imagineers. They briefly hit on Misson: Space in the last few minutes of the show. The implications were that the attraction/ride would simulate take off, with 3 or 4 G-forces on the body and that they would also simulate weightlessness. Sounds awesome if you ask me!

Mission: Space will be a simulator like nothing we have ever experienced before. This isn't a "Dumbo" ride. It is using new technology and a brand new format that I am guessing will make us feel really wierd while riding it. It says we will experience "weightlessness", so I will guess its not going to feel the same as any other simulator, rollercoaster, or any ride in the world.

Oh the torture you put us through. :animwink:
You can't comment on it at all?!? How about a little sneak preview hint or something, we're dying here. See if you can answer this, how does one experience weightlessness if one is just going around in circles, horizontally? Wouldn't one have to be "launched" upward for that? Just a question my teenage brain can't understand. Thanks!
Mission Space will have the best and latest technolgy available, its NASA designed in some aspects as is the simulators which are the similar type to train astronauts.
The difference is that its a show, an experiance, not a carny ride at all.
I remember back in 1966 when I was a boy visiting DL and going on the Mission to Mars ride, I remembered that for years as the best thing I ever saw. This is a ride that IMHO is something Eisner had little or no input on, sort of like a bunch of rogue imagineers did it covertly and NOT cheaply, its definately not an off the shelf ride that any amusement park can order through a catalogue.
I would sum it up as a combination Mission to Mars (updated) Star Tours (enchanced) Stormrider (show), TOT (weightless + and - G's)effects.
Also I would very much like to get an early soft opening in mid jan as thats when we are planning our visit to WDW.

Well, let's hope there isn't a connection, because we don't want Mission: Space to suffer the same consequences Superstar Limo did!
