Space Mountain is rickety (not as bad as a wooden coaster, but close). It would be nice to put in new, slick metal tracks. It would be nice to have more projections like they do in California (especially during Star Wars celebrations). Other parks have totally scrapped the ride. I think the Magic Kingdom could show Space some love.
My wife’s favorite ride, but we will be skipping it in two weeks when we go to the Magic Kingdom. Concerns over the physical toll that a ride can take was the reason we stopped riding the Countdown to Extinction ride in Dino land at the Animal Kingdom. Better to be safe than sorry is an expression that rings true for us today more than ever.
I vaguely remember going on this many years ago but when we took our children last year, both my husband and I didn’t enjoy it at all. Really jerky, made my neck hurt and made my husband’s back hurt. Maybe it’s an age thing as my kids loved it and wanted to get straight back on, but we refused! But when they can make amazing smooth rides like Guardians, it does show how old some other rides are. I would miss it out if we returned.

The ride has become quite jerky in the past few years. It really could use an update.
