Mission:Space - Status and Future

[Snow Queen 83]

Both versions of Soarin' have small sections in which the camera turns, but the seats don't reflect that change of direction. I get a very mild vertigo from it and just close my eyes and it goes away.

Whoa, I thought I had it bad. I'm not good with spinning, so I just don't do those type of rides.

As I said, a lot of Disney people have overdramatic, oversensitive reactions.

I hated Mission Space the one time I rode it. I kept feeling like I was going to puke up my lunch. Hopefully they'll get rid of it.

Bring back Horizons

If they got rid of it, and of course they won't, it would never bring back Horizons sadly...That type ride we will never see again... The amount of development and design time for an attraction like that was staggering, and it all showed... a beautiful well thought out, amazing attraction...

If mission space really has to go (which it probably will) I would love to see it reimagined into a omni mover dark ride that showcased how vast the universe is and how little we are in comparison. I love space and I really hope they keep it as a space pavilion.

It almost certainly will not.

It almost certainly will not.

I think it will be replaced eventually. Not anytime soon since I think Disney has more priorities for other Epcot pavilions, and they just invested in the pavilion with space 220, but I can’t see mission space staying another 20 years

There's at least, three-five pavilions (SSE, Imagination, WOL and Land and Seas re-dos) and another Test Track redo happening before Mission Space gets touched.

Ooh that is interesting to hear. Do you know what they're planning for the Land and Seas re-dos? I am surprised those are on the docket before Space since they are connected to the farm and aquarium respectively. I would love a better ride in Living Seas

Ik these are most likely rumors and if so why do you think this is the plan for Epcot? Maybe I missed some info since I’m still fairly new here ha ha.

They are content with having an entirely unused and abandonded pavilion right next to it. MS isn't going anywhere anytime soon.

Land and Seas would likely be aesthetic touch ups if they happen, but people have talked about those for a few years and I think The Seas could be gearing up for the aesthetic touch up? (Signage changes and dolphin removal). It wouldn't be on par with re-do of attractions, something new being put into the space.

And the Test Track thing is because each version of Test Track usually lasts a decade and a few years .

The common consensus between those in The Know is Spaceship Earth happening after Test Track goes online, Imagination before EPCOT50, and something with WOL after Imagination.
