| Thumbs up for new tame M:S!
<font color="purple">Maureen(statelady01) & Lynn(Offkilterdisneymom)called me last night so that I could let everyone know that it was debuting sooner than we thought, but Tammy(Ladyt) beat them to the punch![img]/ubb/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img] How'd ya do it?[img]/ubb/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]
Anyways, they called me back today and so far have ridden it 4 times! Maureen couldn't put it into words but she loves the new version and says it's still pretty realistic even without the G-forces. You still have a great storyline , but with none of the pressure and no worries of getting queasy.
Personally I'm glad Disney is offering an alternative. After the 2 deaths, I pretty much swore off of the ride.
Now I'm happy to say I'll be goin' back to Mars in a little over 2 weeks![img]/ubb/images/graemlins/woot.gif[/img] </font> |

Yea!!! I am so glad. I miss out on a lot of the cool stuff because of my stomach. This is one I really wanted to do, because of the history involved in it of the space exploration, since I grew up with the "space age." I can't wait to try it in a few weeks.

They have 2 versions now. The same old spinning, G-force version and the new version which does not spin and has no G-force. Glad to hear they liked it! | |

Thanks so much for posting this, Angie. I'm so excited that the experience is still good. I wouldn't even think of doing the g-force ride due to motion sickness, so I'm so psyched I can try it this way and still get a fun experience! | |

I am so glad to hear they enjoyed the new version. I have always been afraid of MS. Now I will get to give it a try. | |

I don't get the point of complaining - they still have 2! working regular centrifuges
I'd think they'd keep 3 on "normal" mode and use the one for "silent running" | |

I'm so glad to hear from a source that's ridden it firsthand that the tamed down version of Mission Space is enjoyable. I've always wanted to try this attraction but, since I don't do the spinning thing at all well, it was always out of the question. Now I'll be able to give it a whirl (no pun intended) on our next trip.

Thanks for the report Angie! Glad to hear that the other version of MS may be tame but is not lame.
Now I can try it! This new version will allow me to go on MS and not do what my DNephew did when he came off of it. (hurl in the bushes) [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/rofl2.gif[/img]  | |

Thanks for posting this Angie. I'll look forward to trying it in November, we've always avoided MS up 'til now. | |
