Shuttle Launch Experience

[punjow]

Here is a man, who has been in fighter jets, he has been to centrifuge training, and he has been aboard a rocket-ship into orbit;who is now relating to a movie-theatre attraction...

@punjow Jon McBride is retired & living in Florida. I bet he enjoys sharing his experience with the public. I think it's cool that he does this. If I lived there I'd hang out at KSC all the time :o)

Wasn't very realistic. All the simulator did was try to act like your going into space by bumping you around. Disney's Spaceship Earth was more realistic and thats DISNEY.

So disappointed in this simulator.

I think you are referring to Mission Space, not Spaceship Earth. This ride is to simulate a launch in the Shuttle. Mission Space would be closer to the Apollo Program. The differences between those two are huge. It would be like driving a Cadillac and then a Pinto.

Mom and I rode on this simulator yesterday. We're going to the World Space Expo tomorrow.
