Mission
to Mars! Many people dream about this, others died trying to
complete this mission. Now you get to experience the historical race
to space. The
United States
was the first to land a man on the moon; the
United States
is also the most advanced in space exploration. You get the
privilege of working side by side with the best in world. So strap
in and hold on tight because you are in for a ride that is out of

Mission Space
is a new member of the Epcot family. Opened in October of 2003, this
attraction has been training future astronauts ever since. As you
stand in line you can gaze at the futuristic gear that you will be
using on your flight. Before you get on the ride there will be a
short de-briefing about your up-coming mission. Once you’re on board
you notice the extreme attention to the detail. The switches move
and buttons light up, and the noises are so real you will forget
you’re in Disney. As the lights dim and mission control tells you to
prepare for lift off. The count down begins with a 3-2-1
lift off! This is the most intense part of the ride. You are being
launched into space at speeds of over 600 miles per hour! The
feeling of gravity is so great you can not even move. In front of
you is a window that allows you to see where you’re heading. After
the incredible launch into outer space you get a few seconds of
weightlessness. Then you use the moons gravity to warp yourself
around to get to your final destination. You then go into a hyper
sleep so your journey to mars is more realistic. All four passengers
have a task to perform. Someone will be a pilot, a navigator,
commander, and an engineer. Everyone must complete there tasks
efficiently so the mission can be done safely. Once you are on Mars
the excitement really begins. The space craft lands on a cliff and
suddenly the cliff collapses, which sends the ship into a landslide
and it’s up to you and your team to get the ship flying again. Now
your speeding into narrow canyon and finally you arrive at your
base, Safe and sound.
Mission space may not be for everyone. This ride does
spin at a high rate of speed. When you are on this ride there are
warnings not to look off of the screen, because your mind will begin
to notice the spinning. If your focus is on the screen you are
tricking your mind to believe you are going forward but really you
spinning in a circle. The sheer force of the spin will keep you
glued to your seat! Thus creating the realistic feeling of flying
through space!
