Show sight on map

Space Mountain is an enclosed roller coaster ride at Disneyland Park in Disneyland Paris. Designed by the teams of Walt Disney Imagineering, it was an adaptation of the Space Mountain attraction when it opened in 1992 in the theme of Jules Verne's novels From the Earth to the Moon and Around the Moon. Considered a masterpiece thanks to its technology that synchronizes the audio on the trains with the route, it is also criticized for its lack of ambition compared to what is done in other Disney parks.

Show sight on map

The Astro Orbiter is a "rocket-spinner", aerial carousel-type attraction featured at five Disneyland-style parks and Walt Disney Resorts around the world, except for Tokyo Disneyland. Although each ride may have a slightly different name, all share the same experience of vehicles traveling through space, spinning around a central monument. In most forms of the ride, the use of a joystick enables guests to adjust the height of their individual cars at will, usually within a range of no more than 10-15 feet. When the ride cycle comes to its completion, any ascended vehicles are automatically lowered for passenger exit and re-boarding. Over the years, with each new iteration of the ride debuting, new designs, thematic schemes, and locations have been implemented to fit with the changing themes of several Tomorrowlands.
