As the World Turns: Spinning Earth Effect Working Again at Mission: SPACE in EPCOT

A couple of years after it was last spotted working, the spinning Earth effect is up and running again in the Planetary Plaza courtyard at Mission: SPACE. The effect was restored today as part of the ongoing refurbishment of the plaza courtyard in front of the attraction. We last noticed the effect working back in 2021, and the Earth prop returned to the courtyard earlier this year following a refurbishment.

Here’s a video of the effect in action from our visit to EPCOT earlier today!
