Why were the lights on? Did Disney give an explanation?

I never rode Space Mountain with the lights on but saw the illuminated track while riding Tomorrowland Transit Authority. The ride broke down just as our car was zipping through the building. I was shocked to see so much metal twisting and turning. The darkness truly makes the attraction. In the light, Space Mountain would probably be lame.

Space Mountain is nothing more than an old fashioned "wild mouse" style roller coaster. The dark is what makes the ride "special."

They purposely had the lights on for a cast member night when I worked there, but by the time my room mate and I go there, the parade was beginning, so we watched that instead. I acutally would like to ride it with the lights on. I've seen the video on youtube and tryied showing DBf last night, but I think I might have scared him with how low the tracks really are above you.

Definetly agree with you disney nut.i too saw it on TTA with the lights on. it does look like it would definetly stink with the lights on. i wonder why they were on.disney has rarely messed up like this.(one time i went on HM and the expanding room wasnt working!!!!!!!!)well i hope it doesnt happen again!!!!!!!!
Please keep all arms, legs and feet inside the vehicle at all times

I wouldn't want to ride SM with the lights on either, I think the best thing about it is that it is dark.

With the lights on, SM would just be the Crazy Mouse at any state fair.
The dark is what makes the ride - not knowing if you're dipping or rising, banking left or right....

As much as the lights on would probably kill the ride, I bet it's cool too. A different perspective. I saw a video on Youtube and I agree, it's kinda scary that way.

I wouldn't class Space Mountain as a wild mouse, the turns aren't sharp enough, that's just my opinion though.
I would love to ride it with the lights on though!

The lights were on for us in 2005. I felt that it destroyed the magic somewhat. The great thing about this was that they allowed us to run around the back for a repeat ride once they got the ride back online

Actually, it is a version of a Wild Mouse. Yes, some "Wild Mouse" coasters have shaper turns or more dips but that is a funtion of the design of a particular coaster. In the genre of the Wild Mouse, Space Mountain is right in the middle.
