Mission to Mars opened in Tomorrowland at Walt Disney
World Florida on the 7th of June 1975, and closed on
the 4th of October 1993.
It was based on the earlier "Flight to the Moon"
attraction from DisneyLand in Anaheim. Both the Disneyland
and Walt Disney World versions of the attraction were
updated mainly due to the Apollo space programme, and
the first moon landings, after which the Moon which
had previously been an unattainable goal became less
exciting as a space travel destination.
The Pre-show area featured an Audio Animatronic control
room scene, whilst for a while the attraction itself
featured film from the Disney TV show "Mars and
Beyond".
