The concept

The sun is losing its power and your spaceship has to save it. Along the way you zoom past Earth, Saturn and other beautiful planets and dodge asteroids. Space Fantasy - The Ride won the Thea Award for Outstanding Achievement from the Themed Entertainment Association.

The Experience

The round vehicles spin freely as they race along the track. That makes every ride different. At the end, the ship dives straight into the sun to restore its glow. Each vehicle seats eight people; the whole experience lasts about ten minutes.
