I never got to experience Horizons myself, but I can tell it was a million times better than Mission: Space. 20th century Epcot was the best. Thanks for the wonderful video!

[mcjaco23]

You're welcome. I still can't believe how many people have watched this!

I wish I could give you 7,000 thumbs up.

Wow, watching this video almost made me cry. It brought back all those wonderful memories from my childhood. This was my second favorite ride (The Living Seas), but it was still one that I always looked forward to. Different times, happier days. Thanks for the video (and the memories).

What a shame that Horizons no longer exits. I never had opportunity of take that ride. When I was to EPCOT in Spring 1995, Horizons was close by repairs, and when I returned on 2009, Horizons had been replacet by Mission: Space.

Great to see a clear video of that ride. Sad that i've only heard of it from the Simpsons...

I loved this ride so much. Thank you for the video and for uploading this. I used to love the part were you could smell the oranges. This brings back so many memories. I miss this ride very much.

Oh man, i never got to ride this. It was closed by the time i even knew horizons was even at epcot. Thanks for puting this up i heard it was a great ride. Mission Space is just crappy but it is fun a little tho messing around with buttons on the inside of the cockpit for mission space

I vaguely remember riding this as a kid back in the eighties. I have not been back since but I'm planning a trip this year. I am excited yet apprehensive about visiting Epcot again efter all these years.

@quak3rjim2k7 Apparently they pretty much had to replace it. There was something wrong with the ground it was built on. It might have been a sink hole, I'm not sure. But I believe it would have cost almost as much to save it than it would to just build a new ride.
