After you’re facing backwards and see a room full of endless blue lights, look over your shoulder and up as the lights end and you should see it:

I finally after all this time got to see it last week!!!! Rode it 3 times in a row just to see it. Almost cried the first time and not sure why LMAO. The only time I was able to see it was when the blue lights stopped at I looked up. Def saw it for a good 3 seconds. Even got my friend I was with interested and he started looking for it too! It was so dope

I kinda wonder what the satellites/space station would’ve looked like in 1994 if the project actually went through and they didn’t run out of money for it.

Back on topic, I was searching through videos again and found some interesting things.

Window Girl in 1991:

1993: Someone taking a flash photo of the planetarium ceiling, with the small satellite and astronaut in the lower right:

1993: This I honestly have no idea what it is, some sort of lighting effect. It’s in 180 Top somewhere. Paging @marni1971 for this one:

1993: and finally the brightest I’ve seen the red space station track lighting:

So... with the past week or so, I was gonna wait a few days to post this, but screw it. Taken within the past week or so I figure you need some happiness. Enjoy

Thanks for posting these! The super-flat gray/black paint makes it look like we’re looking at it through night vision or something. Really cool.

Also, that AC vent is DISGUSTING!

Beautiful shots! I hope whenever the refurb happens they’ll be given some love.

Also the graduation cutouts in the second pic are remnants from the 1994 finale scene:
