==Attraction History==
===Star Tours (1989-2010)===
The creation of what would eventually be known as Star Tour: The Adventure Continues actually began in Disneyland <ref name= "Martin"> http://www.martinsvids.net/?p=663 </ref>. In 1984, then Disney CEO Michael Eisner wanted to find a way to attract the teenage demographic back to the park<ref name= "Martin"/>. Disneyland had been losing guest attendance to other theme parks in the area, and Eisner was determined to "update" Disneyland by replacing some of its more dated attractions<ref name= "Martin"/>. One such attraction, Adventure through Inner Space was an obvious candidate for replacement. Built during the space race, the attraction had begun to show its age<ref name= "Martin"/>.
If guests land on the planet Kashyyyk, they find themselves caught in the middle of a speeder bike chase through a forest. As Imperials soldiers chase Wookies throughout the area, Chewbacca swings into the scene on a vine, crashing into the StarSpeeder’s windshield. Following the collision, the StarSpeeder leaves the planet and heads back into space.
====Tatooine====
The final third planet that guests can land on is Tatooine. Here, the StarSpeeder finds itself in the Boonta Eve Podrace. During the race, the StarSpeeder collides with another Podracer, and the two ships get stuck together. After winning the Podrace by beating out the Sebulba (another Podracer), the StarSpeeder detaches itself from the Podracer and heads back into space.===Jakku==='''EDITORS NOTE: Currently all guests on Star Tours: The Adventure Continues visit the planet Jakku. Disney has said that in the future Jakku will be randomized along with the other destinations'''. In 2015 the planet Jakku was added to Star Tours: The Adventure Continues. In this scene, the StarSpeeder arrives on the plane Jakku where it narrowly misses an explosion. The ship then follows the Millennium Falcon, which is being flown by Finn, who asks "Star Tours what are you doing here?". The StarSpeeder and Falcon are both attacked by TIE fighters while flying over the desert. The StarSpeeder then crashes into the grounded Star Destroyer, where they briefly see Rey. After alien scavengers take the Star Torus logo off of the ship, the StarSpeeder then flies out of the crashed ship and receives a transmission.
===Hologram Message===
Following the StarSpeeder's escape back into space, the ship receives a hologram message from either Yoda, BB8, Princess Leia, or Admiral Gial Ackbar. The ship and its passengers are tasked with getting the rebel spy safely to a rendezvous point. Whoever gives guests this task also sends the coordinates for the meeting to R2-D2.
===Scene 3: Planet 2===
After once again jumping into hyperspace, guests can arrive at one of three planets. Once again, the destination is randomly chosen.

* The second droid guests come upon in the queue is voiced by [[Soarin']] host Patrick Warburton. The droid quotes lines from Soarin's preshow video such as “place all carryons in the overhead compartments” and “nice work pal" <ref name= "trivia"/>
* On the planet Hoth guests are told “Don’t move a muscle" as the ship teeters on the edge of a canyon. This is a reference to Mission: Space which features the same line after guests land on Mars <ref name="trivia"/>.
