Yesterday marked the official opening of Epcot's Mission: Space, a ride that hopes to draw more people to the park and at the same time is considered a renaissance in Disney Imagineering.

Read about the opening and the expectations tied to the ride from Florida Today.

While Mission: Space has just opened, Disney officials are expected to announce several more rides for the Orlando and SoCal parks in the near future. A number of trademark applications may indicate more new attractions for Epcot.
