    I tried it once and that was enough for me. The coaster in the dark with stars around you. The line always long.

    Still the best classic roller coaster anywhere. Awesome for its time and still holds up today.

    If you arrive at park opening, let the first crowd wave pass before riding. You can walk right on after.

    No matter how many times I ride it, space mountain is hands down the best ride at magic kingdom

    Take the right track if you can (Omega), more fun than the left (Alpha), at least I think so.

    Late night Extra Magic Hours are the best, especially between 11:30 pm - 1 am. You can ride over and over again with no waiting.

    Do the fast pass early in the day and try to get in the regular line when it's shorter-or parade time in the evening ;)

    Triple check standby line times. We went on when the app and sign said 20 minutes but that eventually was corrected to 95!! Little to no blacklight this time around. Basically just a ride in the dark.

    If Space Mountain is closed, head immediately for the People Mover. With any luck, you'll catch a glimpse of Space Mountain with the lights on.

    For the Best Experience: Request to Sit in the Back of the Cart or All the way in the Front.

    Only slightly terrifying when you feel that you’ll get your head chopped off 😂

    If you're taller, ride in the front of the car. It has the most legroom, and these cars were apparently not designed for anyone over 5' 9".

    The Fast Pass side was better than the regular side (as long as it's still the one on the left when you're boarding). Much more intense.

    Always fast pass this ride first then enjoy the rest of tomorrowland and come back for your no wait trip through space.

    At the start of the ride, after the warp tube, the camera is on your left if you boarded Alpha. Omega camera is to the right.

    The back seat, of the three. has the most leg room and the front has the least, so if you tall...

    My favorite ride in MK. Take a picture of the light boost tunnel. It's incredible.

    This ride is starting to show its age, since the only element of surprise is that you're in the dark.

    Best time to go the hour before closing. If you're in line at closing, you will still get to ride.

    The best roller coaster at the Magic Kingdom.

    Decades later, I still think this is a pretty bad ass roller coaster. The darkness is the best part -- u don't know what's coming next!

    If you have back problems, Space Mountain may not be for you. Try Splash Mountain or Big Thunder Mountain Railroad instead (still a bit rough though).

    Need an outlet to charge your device? There's a few outside the Space Mountain shop on the wall by the fast pass area.

    If you're tall(over 6') ask for seat 6. It has the most leg room, and you'll be most comfortable. Believe me.

    The Left side is better than the right. You really feel like you are in a rocket ship in space. Wave to the TTA

    each car on the ride fits 3 rows of single seats. 2 cars connected per train

    Get there right after the fireworks show, practically no wait at all! Even Fast pass line seems longer

    If you are tall - don't sit in either of the car's first seat. The other two seats have a lot more leg room.

    Alpha side definitely seems better than Omega! Try to get that side if you can.

    Please do not high five people sitting in the rockets when you're waiting at the load area. If it does happen, the ride will be momentarily stopped.

    The non fastpass waiting line has a game now. So if you don't have a fast pass, it's okay. Play the game :D
