However the attraction vehicles were different than any other previous form as they were much larger and featured a flatter back-end and larger tail fins.
This version of the attraction was based on the Disneyland version, in both location (on top of the Peoplemover platform) and in style (both feature a large Saturn rocket). No form of the attraction existed in the Magic Kingdom at Walt Disney World until 1974, three years after the park's opening, when Tomorrowland underwent a massive expansion including the creation of the first Space Mountain, a new location for the Disneyland-attraction the Carousel of Progress, a new WEDWay Peoplemover, and of course the Star Jets also opened. Control how high you fly by pulling or pushing the lever inside the ship.

Then, hold on tight as your spacecraft levitates and begins a series of rapid revolutions around a galaxy of planets, as the sights and sounds of Tomorrowland whizz by in the distance below. After receiving authorization from Ground Control, make your way to a gleaming 2-passenger spaceship of your choice and prepare for launch.Board an elevator with fellow cadets and ascend to a loading platform for your spaceflight to begin. As the newest star pilot to join the fleet, the time has come for you to take to the sky. Maneuver a rocket-like spacecraft into the farthest reaches of space and back.You rise several feet in the air in an open rocket ship. This ride is like the Dumbo the Flying Elephant at Fantasyland. It is located at the top of Rockettower Plaza, where Tomorrowland Transit Authority's station and the Lunching Pad are located as well.
The attraction is known as a "spinner," in which vehicles are lifted into the air by large arms coming out of a spinning central core. In 1994, when the New Tomorrowland opened, it was overhauled and renamed. It opened in 1974 as the StarJets, an attraction similar to the Rocket Jets at Disneyland. The Astro Orbiter is a rocket-spinner attraction at Magic Kingdom at the Walt Disney World Resort in Florida.
