I don’t think everyone shares your opinion. I think it [Mission Space] is really cool and unique. My stomach just can’t handle Mars more than once a trip.

I think the issue with Mission Space is that it is just another ride where you what a movie about something.

The buttons don't functionally do anything. You only are asked to press them once. It doesn't change the story if participate or not.... There is no interaction at all.

That is why it is not a good ride. You are simply watching an 8 minute TV clip.

This year?

Imagine that.

That is why it is not a good ride. You are simply watching an 8 minute TV clip locked in a rapidly spinning and twisting box.

FTFY

Wonder what that PCQ was for that...

Yes.

Opens 2019.

This year?

Imagine that.

But the bigger question...will it be open before or after Thanksgiving? (Ok, bigger question for ME)

Can I call reservations in the Space Restaurant in Epcot?

The lack of actual interactivity is a valid complaint. We will see if Falcon can address that or if it’s all smoke and mirrors again. You are selling the ride system short however. What you describe is basically Mission to Mars (from Tomorrowland’s ancient history).

But you get to vomit after. E ticket for sure.

That’s built in marketing. Guests leaving the ride will get to see all the great food and 1000 bottles of wine from the restaurant as they pass the bushes at the ride exit. “Do I smell filet with a Chianti reduction paired with Merlot, mom?” “Yes, and space asparagus with smashed purple potatoes! Hunny, grab your phone and book it!”

In Space Restaurant, no one can hear you call.

I thought this was already announced for 2019?

I thought this was already announced for 2019?

Lots of delays the last few years. This is a “no really, we mean it this time!” announcement.

 

[MisterPenguin]

I thought this was already announced for 2019?

It was announced by WDW but with no date. It was @marni1971 who said 2019, but then the date might be slipping, but then might get it done by 2019. All with the implied panic of WDW to not let Epcot be the lowest attended park in WDW.

None of the other blogs had 2019 as a date. They were all assuming this and the new Japan restaurant couldn't possibly be done by the end of the year.

This is a great addition! I am a big space fan so I am biased. This will be an over priced restaurant, but still cool. I hope to dine there at least once.

So don’t like when they give a season, like summer or something and don’t hit the mark. Worse is “later this year “. So hope it happy, really looking forward to this.

 

[mhochman]

This year?

Imagine that.

So, like late summer, early fall, late fall......?

Can I call reservations in the Space Restaurant in Epcot?

No, reservations are not open yet.

 

[RememberWhen]

I really hope it’s good. We’ve got a tentative visit to check out NASA stuff this December. Might be worth a stop-by to Epcot if this was up and running and looked decent. DS7 loves all things space.

Looking at the new photos, I really hope they paint the side of the building to somehow fit it with Test Track... Something like a shade of blue with "speed" arrows would be cool and sublte. (and cheapish)
