Here's a rumor posted today by DisneyDad61 over on the DIS boards. I'm not making any claims about its veracity, just passing it along.
This was stated way early in the thread but it hasn't left my mind. I know it's mostly a ridiculous idea but I like the idea of an exterior launch into the SM building. It would mimic reality of launching from a planet's surface into the dark expanse of space. Going from light to dark would certainly make the dark even darker. An interesting idea to say the least.
A little space birdy just whispered in my ear that the time frame for Space is looking like a June closure, being down anywhere from 12 to 18 months.
Likely including:
Major station work.
New trains.
New track is still in play.
New effects.
New pre/post.
New control systems.
Take it with a spoonfull of salt, as always...but this source is a pretty good one. Until I hear differently, this is what I'm going with.
Actually, much of this should be known to CMs over there, so any of those guys can feel free to chime in at anytime.

Unfortunately, in this case, the first couple of posts WERE about Splash Mountain, with a little bit of Jungle Cruise thrown in, then switched over to almost all Space Mountain, then segued into a discussion of "which is the world's roughest coaster/attraction" which began a debate of "is or isn't Space Mountain a specific type of coaster" with speculation about what the rehab might be, and how it would effect other attractions.
Why would anyone have the least bit of troble following the thread? :lookaroun

But... You need to stay away from the "spoonful of salt" phrase. Next thing we know, you're going to suggest they're going to add two-sided pop-up heads to Space. :lookaroun:lol:
