Here is Buzz Aldrin, on hand for the ceremonies. Buzz had this to say about the ride: "Space Mountain is physically more
impressive than a real rocket, because accelerations are more brutal. This attraction could be compared with an aircraft fighter, even though the real sensations from a real rocket are nearer to a Boeing flight."

Here's Philippe again (top left) and the MAGICIAN & MODEL couple you might recognize. This is an example of the "Light Speed Photography" you can buy of yourself, but this one comes from Opening Day.
