Tomorrowland is a land inside the [[Magic Kingdom]]
==Overview==
Although not yet complete, Tomorrowland opened with the park in [[Magic Kingdom]] on October 1, 1971. When the park land opened it featured four three attractions- [[The Grand Prix Raceway]], Flight to the Moon, and the Skyway to Fantasyland, and (America the Beautifulwould open shortly afterwards on November 25). Although the land was still under construction, it was billed as a look into the future of the space age. In 1975, Tomorrowland was finally completed with popular attractions, the additions of [[Space Mountain]], [[Star Jets ]] (later renamed Astro Orbiter) [[The WEDway People Mover]], and The the [[Carousel of Progress ]] being added. Between 1975 and 1994 Tomorrowland experienced mostly relatively “minor” renovations. In 1975, due to the fact that Flight to the Moon was becoming dated, the attraction was re-branded Mission to Mars<ref>waltdatedworld.com/id88.htm</ref>. The attraction If You Had Wings also went through a series of sponsor and name changes- Becoming If You Could Fly, Delta Dreamflight, and Take Flight, before finally closing for good in 1998. <ref>waltdatedworld.com/id97.htm</ref>
In 1994 Tomorrowland was completely “re-imagined” and changed to resemble a spaceport, like the ones envisioned in the early 20th century. The color scheme of Tomorrowland was changed from its classic blue and white, to a more metallic darker looking land. In conjunction with the retheming, two new attractions were added. The first was the Timekeeper. This was a new film housed in the Circle-Vision 360 Theater that invited guests to travel through time with the Timekeeper and his droid “9-eye”. The second attraction added was the ExtraTERRORestrial Alien Encounter.<ref>http://wedwayradio.squarespace.com/wwr/2013/7/22/tomorrowland-94-show-notes-for-season-5-episode-11.html</ref> The new attraction was a “theater-in-the-round” attraction where guests were placed in the dark along with an escaped alien. ExtraTERRORestrial Alien Encounter was much darker in its tone then most Disney Rides, and a sign outside the building stated that it was not intended for children under the age of 12. Also changing in 1994 were the names of a lot of popular Tomorrowland attractions. The Grand Prix Raceway was renamed, the Tomorrowland Indy Speedway. Star Jets was renamed Astro Orbiter, and the WEDway People Mover was renamed the Tomorrowland Transit Authority. The “new” Tomorrowland, was billed as “the future that never was”, and was inspired by the visions of H.G. Wells and Jules Verne. <ref>http://wedwayradio.squarespace.com/wwr/2013/7/22/tomorrowland-94-show-notes-for-season-5-episode-11.html</ref>
