Reader reviews of Spaceship Earth
Doesn't look like much at first, but with the rehab being done this ride is a must-do especially for any new comer to Disney. - Brandie S I underestimated this ride when we first walked into the park, I mean I didn't think much of it, although I was aware of the recent refurbishments. It was a surprisingly good dark ride. The last scene going down backwards was pretty awkward (they could've added SOMETHING to it) but the computer game thing was a pretty nice touch. It was very funny looking at our pictures after we got off! - Derrick O. Foreman Epic in scope and grandeur, Spaceship Earth is quite simply one of the best Disney dark rides ever built. The ending as you travel back down to the base of the sphere could use a bit more scenery, but otherwise this attraction is top notch. - James Rao Amazing... one of the best dark rides ever. cool exhibits at the end. second only to... well... tied with Pirates of the Caribbean. - David L. I thought it would be a bit more interesting than it was, the beginning was VERY slow. But, us being in the ride itself was fun with the pictures and looking up at the Earth and stars was very cool. - Nick Dakuginow Very good ride. For everyone. - gaetan leclercq Very good ride. For everyone. - gaetan leclercq One of my favorite rides at Epcot. While not a thrill ride, it's cool and a place to sit. Most people come here as soon as they walk in the park, so do yourself a favor and head for some of the more popular rides - like Test Track and Mission: Space - and wait 'til around lunchtime to ride. I can't say that I like that they seemed to have condensed the ride, and the 'dark part' (you'll know what I mean) seems kinda lazy, but the new stuff looks great. The area with the games afterward is amusing for a short while, but best left to kids and teens. - Eric Malone slow and informative ride with some good effects. The new additions are great and when you disembark you can watch a short movie of your predicted future. Your image also appears on the screens above. - Emily G Classic old school Disney! Not a thirll ride by any means but a great shot at slicing up the entire history of the world in a single amusement park ride. - Christian Baggett
