Not MLK's words but mine..I have a Dream! I have a DREAM! I HAVE A DREAM!I have a dream! That SFMM fans will be able to walk hand in hand with CP's!
AND no ONE cares what a coaster is and what a coaster isn't!
The actual ride portion of the pavilion is comprised of two centrifuges, each with four 'pods' about their circumference. I do not know how many people each pod will seat.
The pods will 'spin up,' and will be what I can only think to describe as a motion simulator (with real motion!) and Mission to Mars. The onboard effects will simulate launch into space, with the forces created by the spinning corellating to what the guest is seeing on the screen.
Once you reach space, the speed of the centrifuge is gradually slowed, first with an deceleration greater than the positive acceleration the guest is experiencing. The deceleration will slow to match the deceleration of the guest, thus creating the feeling of weightlessness.
At least, that's what I think the ride system is designed to do. I could be a bit off, but that's it in a nutshell. Now, let's just hope it all works the way it's supposed to, and we don't see any centrifuge pods flying across Future World.
