about

Len Testa & Jim Hill conclude their exploration of the Joseph Mankiewicz EPCOT Center archives by reading excerpts from Ray Bradbury’s “Man and his Spaceship Earth” script. Which had been submitted to WED back in July of 1977.

lyrics

Over the course of this episode, listeners will learn about:

 How the Imagineers originally want to set the stage for EPCOT Center’s thesis attraction
 What element from Bradbury’s “Man and his Spaceship Earth” script did the Imagineers originally want to include as part of Epcot’s “Mission: Space” attraction
 Which historic pieces of architecture would Guests have watched unbuild themselves as Spaceship Earth descended into mankind’s past
 What’s significant about that mural that WDW visitors walk under as they enter Epcot’s thesis attraction
 Why did the way Epcot Guests return to Spaceship Earth’s offload area disrupt the Imagineers’ original plan for the message that the end of this Future World attraction was supposed to pass along
