Mission: Space begins with a launch countdown, which includes various tension-building, special effects. Just before the countdown ends, the seats tilt back into launch position. As the space shuttle takes off, guests feel like they are quickly picking up speed, and because the attraction gives off a G force of 2.5g, guests feel 2.5x heavier than they actually are (This sensation only happens on the Orange Team version of the attraction). After escaping the Earth's gravitational pull and making their way into space, guests feel weightless. As the space ship travels toward Mars, each guest must execute their duty. To do this, each crew member must press the button in front of them when Mission Control tells them to do so. If a guest fails to accomplish their task, the auto-pilot will take over and do it. Although there are many buttons and switches in front of each guests, they are there only to add realism, and do not do anything.
The trip to Mars includes a slingshot around the moon, a simulated hyper-sleep (to make the time it would take to get to Mars seem more realistic) and a landing on Mars itself. Along the way, the ship may experience various difficulties, depending on how well guests execute their responsibilities. After landing on Mars, guests disembark and exit the attraction. The Green Team version of the attraction is essentially the same; however the gravity effects are not used.
