Get ready for an out-of-this-world dining experience. Walt Disney World Resort in Florida, the United States, has announced the opening of the Space 220 restaurant coming to its Epcot area in mid-September.

Offering an immersive dining experience, the restaurant will make visitors feel like they’re sitting at a restaurant near the International Space Station. The experience begins at the Departure Lounge in Future World, where visitors wait for a Space Elevator to rocket them to Centauri Space Station, located 354 kilometers above Earth (a distance similar to the orbit of the actual International Space Station). Of course, the elevator is not real but a feature of illusion designed by engineers.

During takeoff, visitors will see Epcot and Orlando shrink away and, as they depart Earth, the space-station scene come into view. Once diners are docked, they’ll move into a space station-themed dining area, where they’ll enjoy their meals surrounded by panoramic views of Earth. Fellow astronauts will appear every so often, working on the space station or maybe just playing around.

The announcement came a week after Disney revealed another intergalactic experience: the new Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser hotel. A stay at the property, which is scheduled to open in spring of 2022, is “part immersive theater, part themed environment, part culinary extravaganza, part real-life role-playing game,” according to the theme park.(SD-Agencies)
