The Spaceship Earth Story (1982)

- This is the story of Spaceship Earth, Epcot Center's iconic attraction. Made in 1982, the year the park opened, the film walks us through the creative and engineering processes behind the show's creation.
My Mom was one of the first 'costumers' who walked the steps through the entire ride every morning to check the outfits on the animatronic characters 😍
This video outlines the primary purpose of Disney's EPCOT Center (not to be confused with EPCOT - which is sad that Disney has dropped the 'Center' part ) I love all of this information behind things that were inspired by Walt and his dreams. These are some of the best times of the Walt Disney Company.
funny you said that, I am 35 and still call it EPCOT Center.
I still call it EPCOT Center too. I remember when they first opened it still. I’m 41.
the narrator sounds so familiar, and then it hit me: he does the narration in the universe of energy!
I believe the narrator is actor Vic Perrin, who did the original narration of this ride.
It's Vic Perrin who narrated the dino film portion of "Universe of Energy" but not the ride portion. That narrator is still unknown.
Love Marty Sklar, what a great imagineer!
Adore the old future, so much better that the real one
I agree, but a lot of it is our own fault.
It is always a shame when the future doesn't turn out the way we want it to but that's just reality.
The narrator at the beginning is Vic Perrin, the famous "Control" voice from "Outer Limits" who also narrated the original version of the attraction from 1982 to 1986 when the more fondly remembered Walter Cronkite "Tomorrow's Child" narration program replaced it through 1994.
For a long time I thought it was Burgess Meredith.
epaddon It is not Vic Perrin. It's Lawrence Dobkin. Take a look at his entry on Wikipedia.
EJM Ernestine No, it is Vic Perrin and Wikipedia is incorrect since they are going by a mistaken recollection of Marty Sklar. Dobkin narrated the "Hall of Presidents" attraction at WDW which you can also hear on YT and on the net and this voice is not him, it's Perrin (find the "Outer LImits" intro and you'll also hear that it is indeed Perrin).
Hmmm. OK, I always thought it sounded like Perrin until I recently learned of the Sklar "clarification". How bizarre that Sklar of all people would misremember.
So while we're at it -- who was the narrator of Universe of Energy, the 1982 original version? I've never gotten a straight answer on that. Cheers!
Perrin narrated the dino film before the main attraction, but he's not the narrator of the main attraction because that same narrator was brought back to do a minor upgrade in 1996 when the original program had to be temporarily run once again before the Ellen ride opened and by that point Perrin was dead.
As Ray quoted Walt, Epcot was to be a permanent World's Fair with changes from within. No mention of a Experimental City Of The Future here. Glad to see Valerie Todd on this video. RIP Valerie.
I really wish that Disney Company would take one section of Walt's Original EPCOT and make it a reality. Take a look at the "peddle" concept and see how wonderful it was designed. People movers from your front door to the transportation center to take you to another part of the property so you could work, get an education, play and shop there. What a place to live . EPCOT, the future of urban planning.
It is so funny to hear about Bradbury's contribution to the project as Disney has grown up to perpetrate so many actions that he warned his readers about in his books and stories.
So vintage.
Thumbs up if you're watching this in 2015

Great video
The Jeremy Irons version in the 90s was the best.
The "leave a legacy" stones ruin the vista you used to experience when you enter the park. They're just ugly tombstones. And it's a cash grab. Bad idea, Disney.
AMEN! Restore the original entrance (or something similar) and don't forget the awesome lucite fountain spires.
UPDATE: Announced March 2019, the entrance plaza is being restored! The tombstones will be GONE thank God. It will again resemble its original appearance including the fountain. Couldn't be happier (the exception being they need to NOT build a stupid Guardians coaster and keep Universe of Energy...who was smoking what?) Future World is sadly a mix of conflicts today.
My favorite all time Disney attraction!
There still doesn't seem to be a video of the original ride that existed from October 1982 to May 1986, although there is an audio recording which is on one of MartinsVids channel videos. If anyone has a video of the original ride, it would be great to see it.
My guess cameras might not have been good enough yet to capture the low light?
Does anyone know the track list for all the music pieces? I am specifically looking for the second piece during the interview starting around 3:40.
I believe its called "The EPCOT Tune." It was made by Michael Iceburg. Synthesizer Music = 😄
Sadly, at 13:48 they spelled Egyptian incorrectly.
Yep they did
Cool shit man
for the love of god, can't they get rid of those tombstones that are currently in front of Spaceship Earth?
They just did! Of course this is 7 years after you made the comment
what music at the begining?
That's the opening track from the original EPCOT Main Entrance medley that played for 18 years from 1982 to 2000. That first track is a variation of the song "Energy You Make The World Go Round" from the original Universe Of Energy show in that pavilion.
epaddon thanks a lot bro ive been looking for this for a while.
My grandpa helped build this
I hope Spaceship Earth doesn't explode, right?
why would it
They built it way too early. The next year, the cell phone came out! (1983)
Typo at 13:49
how old is this vid?
why does spaceship earth look like a giant golf ball?
SAY HELLO TO FROZEN WORLD IN THE FUTURE!!!!!!!!!
Occasionally....HA!
Walt Disney would have hated donald trump
how bout walt hating muslim obama for giving iran a nuclear FREAKIN reactor......Now future leaders have to undo obamas muslim mess...
You should stop watching fox news idiot. you live in an alternate universe.
and you watch the fakest news network ever in cnn and ...lol......so you defend muslim obama giving iran a nuclear reactor????? I realize liberals are idiots, but with the revelation that obama had MUSLIM worship rooms in the white house, I would think you might wake up just a bit.....I guess you are just that thick...
No, he would have hated the current Disney management and never permitted the company to go woke.
Very dull ride...I remember riding this was I was 9 years old and I was bored....I thought both Epcot and Disney were HIGHLY overrated parks and have no intention of going there again.....long waits, glorified fair rides, very expensive food.....The park is clean and nice, but not worth the $100 a day per person ticket.....
Hey "Genius"......you clearly have no concept of what EPCOT Center was about. EDUCATION, and done in a way only Disney could. Today millennials are crying because it's not a thrilling enough park. It was never supposed to be full of coasters. Now there's a Guardians coaster replacing a mind blowing ride system and memorable show that was Universe Of Energy. Happy??? The rest of us aren't. Today's Future World is a conflict of messages and ideas, and is SHIT compared to what existed to inspire the world (those willing to listen anyways) back in the 80's and 90's.
Clearly, you don't have a strong sense of commitment for this iconic landmark.
