When you enter Mission Space in EPCOT you have to decide if you want to do the GREEN team (the less intense) or the ORANGE team (the more intense ride.)

Check out Misson: SPACE - Epcot for more. You can also read reviews of both versions here: Misson: SPACE - Epcot

Sorry, I just didn't get your topic. I didn't understand that you were referring to Mission: Space Green version. If you're not sure which side you should ride, then I always recommend riding Green first and then deciding if you want to try Orange. I ended up doing the reverse. I rode Orange first before ever trying Green simply because when I first rode Mission: Space there was no option, everyone rode what is now considered 'Orange'. After having ridden Orange and not having any major issues with it, except a minor twinge of a headache, Green seemed to be lacking to me so I went back to riding Orange. But definitely start with Green if you've got any concerns.

If you do decide to ride Orange, I always tell people to do exactly as the safety precautions instruct. Look straight ahead of you keeping your eyes on the screen in front of you, keep your eyes open at all times and keep your head back on the back of the seat. If you follow the instructions to the letter you will be fine. If you deviate from what you're told, that's when you will notice the spinning and that's when you'll suffer any ill side effects.

Definitely start with the Green Side or maybe even do a chicken exit first to see if you even want to attempt the Green Side

The "green" side doesn't involve the centrifuge spinning, but the gondola does tip and rock side-to-side. To give you the impression of the g-forces of the orange side, it also tips you way on your back at times.

I don't get motion sick, but I do find the green side takes a bit of a toll on me. I'd take every precaution you normally take to mitigate your motion sickness and then ride M:S on a day/time that you could recover if necessary.

Good luck!
Eileen

I'm not into spinning rides and I find that the green version isn't so intense that I leave disoriented for the rest of the day.

I'd try green first.
