Prepare for an exhilarating journey on Mission: SPACE at EPCOT, where you’ll take part in a realistic astronaut training experience inspired by NASA. This advanced simulator places you in a four-person crew, each with a specific role, as you embark on a mission to space. Guests can choose between the more intense Orange Mission, which simulates a powerful launch to Mars, or the gentler Green Mission, offering a milder orbit around Earth. With immersive visuals, motion effects and interactive elements, it’s a thrilling way to experience the challenges of space travel. Not recommended for those prone to motion sickness or claustrophobia.
