Very nice! Are those cabinets perhaps just Custodial CM supplies or what?

And the third photo here is from the Pepper;s Ghost illusion for those SSE94 dioramas, right?

Now we know what happend to this satellight in the frist pic (the Bigger Satellight.) And the Second Photo look at the bottom LEFT hand Corner. I think i see the Astronauts.
Huh? The Astronauts are in Space Mountains post show, and the satellites are both long gone.

Trust me ;)

Well, we know that the Spacemen are in SM. (Or at least, were...I hope they remain) However, that does look uncannily like the Satellite!:eek:


Cool stuff...This thread might get interesting again.

that is NOT the satelite dish nor any other space prop. The astronauts were removed in 1994 and put in the space mountain post show. The satelite props were removed from the ride, taken to a scene shop to be enhanced and the budget cuts forced that to never take place and the props were scrapped.

What you're seeing is a wheel and cable that used to hold the projection screen for the floating newscast in space. It was taken apart and is now lying off the side of the track as a larger canopy now covers the track just before the infinite blue stars.

But isn't this in the middle of 180 Top? Why would it be so far away?

I agree, Maybe we can Restart This Thread, PS. I might go back to Epcot this Winter which means Maybe More Pictures!!!!!
