Imagination Skyway

Space Mountain (Magic Kingdom | Walt Disney World)


Listen Later

Space Mountain opened at the Magic Kingdom in Walt DISNEY WORLD in 1975, becoming the first indoor tubular steel roller coaster. The original idea was conceived by Walt Disney for Disneyland, but after he passed away, the attraction was shifted to Florida, with Imagineer John Hench leading a team of talented Imagineers to bring this iconic attraction to life.

In this episode, we discuss the history of Space Mountain, its impact on Tomorrowland, details and easter eggs, music, architecture, and more, plus we enjoy a binaural audio recording of the Walt Disney World version of the attraction.
