Ride details

Spaceship Earth

Een klassieke Omnimover-darkride door de geschiedenis van menselijke communicatie, midden in de iconische EPCOT-bol.

Spaceship Earth is de herkenbare poortwachter van EPCOT en tegelijk een rustige darkride. De voertuigen klimmen door de geodetische bol langs scenes over taal, schrijven, drukwerk, computers en moderne communicatie, waarna de afdaling de toekomst op speelse wijze teruglegt bij de bezoeker.

Typical wait time: around 10 min.

It usually falls between 5 min and 20 min.

See more than 20 min? It is probably busier than usual — consider a quieter moment.

Less than 5 min? You are in luck: that does not happen often.
