When is Space Mountain scheduled for refurbishment?

Since I likened the feel of Matterhorn and Space Mountain to Steeplechase, so this is indeed on-topic honest, can we just take a moment to appreciate the brilliance of this. Watch all the way through for all views for the best effect. And notice the jerky transitions.

Gotta say neither mountains feel like Steeplechase but the latter is indeed a crazy, unique experience

During my last trip in September 2024, my dad and I went on Space Mountain. Oh boy, it was a bit rough! My dad joked that they needed an chiropractor in the gift shop because he got major whiplash from the turns. The seats were somewhat small; I fit, but with my backpack on the floor, the whole vehicle felt worn down. With Thunder Mountain currently under refurbishment for about a year, do you think Space Mountain will be next? It could use a closure for a year to install updated, smoother tracks and ride vehicles.

You would think soon after BTMRR re-opens next year after its major refurbishment. Won't be before.

Ive heard there are rumors that after Big Thunder's refurbishment in 2026, that it will close for a major renovation and also redo the interior which is what JohnD just said..not sure about the validity of that.
