Frequently Asked Questions
How intense is Space Mountain?
It's a moderately intense coaster with sharp turns and sudden drops in the dark. Riders must be 44 inches tall. It's rougher than newer coasters like Seven Dwarfs Mine Train.
Can you see anything on Space Mountain?
The ride takes place mostly in darkness with occasional star projections. This amplifies the sensation of speed and makes the turns feel more intense.
Should I do Space Mountain or TRON first?
TRON is harder to get Lightning Lane for, so many guests prioritize TRON at rope drop or for their first Lightning Lane purchase, then use ParkPal to track Space Mountain availability.
Is Space Mountain different at Disneyland?
Yes, the Disneyland version has a different track layout and runs two separate tracks. The Magic Kingdom version is a single track experience.
