Re: mission to space orange or green

Green is the weaker version, and orange is the full-force original version. Hope that helps!

Re: mission to space orange or green

Though I've always kind of thought the original should have been called the green one. Catch my drift?

Re: mission to space orange or green

Green is the non spinning version and isn't any worse than Star Tours. It's just a moving base simulator. There are view screens that show the ride movie while the capsule is rocked back and forth to simulate space flight. There are some "interactive" moments where riders are "required" to "activate" various ship systems, climaxing in "manually" landing your ship on Mars.
Yellow is the spinning version where you will feel changes in gravitational forces. All other ride elements are the same as the green side.
However, even the yellow version is nowhere near as violent as when the ride first opened in 2004. It was tamed shortly after it opened and tamed after each of the incidents.
After the last incident, that is when the non spinning version was implemented.

Re: mission to space orange or green

I won't even try the orange side- I don't want to find out if I have a heart condition while at Epcot!!

I thought the green side was fun enough- no need to be spun!!

I totally agree. I tried the Orange side a few years back and. It was not easy for me. Last year I got on again,but this time I got on the green side. Wow, it was much better. Like Soundgod said, it is very much like Star tours.

Re: mission to space orange or green

It all depends. You said you rode it 10 times in 2005, well there was only one option for it back then and it was Orange. If you rode it and were fine than stick with orange. I rode "Orange" back when the attraction first opened and was fine with it. Tried Green on the next trip and to me it was lacking so re-rode it but on Orange and was much happier.

Re: mission to space orange or green

I can do Orange on an empty stomach. Green was "okay", but I wouldn't wait too long for it.

One "tip"... on our last trip the whole family did Green; my youngest daughter was tall enough to ride, but she was too short to see into the monitor. That struck me as being very strange. Maybe she has long legs/short torso?
