    Default Horizons??

    Could someone please describe "Horizons" to me or point me the direction where I could find pictures or even video of the attraction. It was gone before I ever visited EPCOT but everyone goes on and on about how cool it was. What replaced it and why??

    Try youtube.com for a video. Mission Space replaced Horizons.

    There are several videos about it on youtube, but the one called

    "Horizons True-To-Ride Tribute Pt 1 "

    is my favorite.

    Great videos!! You must see all 3 parts.
    Horizons is my all time favorite ride...along side Journey Into Imagination (the original). It was a great look into what people thought the future would be. And the huge movie screens were amazing. It's very missed

    There is no ride in all of WDW that I miss more than I miss Horizons.

    I've got a Horizons video on youtube, among a few other from 1984. Search for user mcjaco23.

    Also try to search for "Horizons1" on Yahoo or Google. It's an excellent site for Horizons history.

    I second that! I just loved Horizons and World of Motion. Epcot's just not the same without them

    I'm afraid they will close down the Land at some point since it's one of their older rides (I never fear for Spaceship Earth for some reason ) I really love the Land and my DD loved it as well. We went on it three times at our last visit in 2006 (when she was only 3) and she would point out the different fruits and vegetables in the green house

    You can still get a very small peak at Horizons at the old Epcot Center display behind Club Cool. Just enter the double glass doors and turn right.

    Is this the last surviving piece of Horizons? Robot
