This is a favorite attraction of The Mature Mouse™ because of its educational value. As I teacher, I appreciate attractions that both entertain and educate, which was a goal of Walt Disney. Spaceship Earth is also a great place to take a break from your touring of EPCOT, especially during those hot and humid days in the park.
Spaceship Earth is EPCOT’s iconic attraction and it is one that has changed very little especially when compared to some other Walt Disney World attractions. The attraction has been in EPCOT since opening day on October 1, 1982. During that time, the roughly 15 minute ride through history has only undergone two face-lifts. The first was in 1994 and the second came in 2007. The first face-lift saw some scene changes. The second face-lift saw more scene changes and the removal of the Fantasia Magic Wand. This article doesn’t focus on the changes to the scenes. It will focus on the narrators.

Thank you for the reblog. Much appreciated. It’s one of my favorite attractions at EPCOT as well.

Scrolling through WP at dinner tonight with my husband, we paused at your blog. He is such a fan of “The Big Ball!” Thanks for sparking more conversation.

I am in the process of organizing an April 2016 student trip to experience the YES program. There is a lot of interest, but not registrants yet.
