Space Mountain (RU42 Video)

Back

Space Mountain, the first in a line of different mountain chains to be set up at Disney parks, was created in 1975 for the Magic Kingdom at Walt Disney World Restort. Not too far later, in 1977, Space Mountain was put into Disneyland, causing the closure of the PeopleMover Thru the World of Tron for a year. Other versions not stemming from the original idea exist in Disneyland Paris. Not too long ago, the Disneyland version went down for rehab, which is shown here. Notice in the video RU42 had to turn on the camera's light to be able to see. The update sealed out all light from entering the main portion of the ride. The track was also updated. It also brought about a new frontal paint scheme of bronze, not shown here. Then came...the repair. All the lights were turned on inside the mountain while under repair, giving the first real look at what you were riding. It ruined the effects, but it was pretty neat to see the tracks! Note this, like the Star Tours video, is not mine. I attempted a video of Space Mounatin at the Magic Kingdom, which didn't work out too well. The video was obtained through VisionsFantastic.
