Ride
Mission
Space at Walt Disney World's Epcot Theme Park
Mission: SPACE

Prepared
to go where few men have gone before?
Mission space embarks you on a mission that has taken
others years and years of training to experience!
Very few men and women around the world have had
the ability to enter space, and, unfortunately, some have
even died trying.
Now with the help of modern technology and Epcot’s
adventurous side you get to delight in this amazing encounter
that’s out of this world!
Opened
in 2003 this ride is brand new and incredibly innovative.
Mission: SPACE
is one of the prime attractions of Disney’s Epcot theme
park. Sit and
achieve zero-gravity as you control your ship into a new
world. Work
with your team (family and friends) to make a clean take
off and landing, host a successful mission.
Can you handle the 600 mile per hour take off as
you embark on the first mission to Mars ever attempted?
Feel the jolts of entering the atmosphere and experience
what astronaut’s feel on takeoff.
Before
entering the shuttle you are assigned a position as Commander,
Pilot, Navigator or Engineer.
Each position is unique and essential to the success
of the mission.
Whether your charting maps, steering or fixing your
teams mistakes you will have to work together to accomplish
the tasks asked of you.
Enter
a hyper sleep and awake on the planet of mars, where you
will attempt a landing.
Flying the X-2 Deep you are expected to complete
a successful mission.
The entire crew must work together as you approach
the landing zone, but be careful; the ground looks unstable
and soon collapses!
Think quickly and save the ship from certain disaster;
you might just have to ride this a few times and find the
perfect crew!
Attempt to save the X-2 Deep at the last moment and
enter the space base, hopefully safe and sound.
Epcot
has used the latest in technology to bring you a down to
earth space experience.
Using technology from NASA’s training program Mission:
SPACE gives you the actual feeling of space travel.
With bumps and bounces, shaking and even zero-gravity
you will find this ride to be like no other simulator you
have been on.
This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to reach
for the sky!
