Well it can provided its not real time rendering and is a recorded loop, when done correctly it can be indistinguishable from real life. I think the reason that did it the way they did was to make the attraction easier to "upgrade" to new experiences without a major overhaul and retuning of the systems. So in theory when Mars gets old you can go to Lunar base Alpha, Io, deep space station Alpha or maybe Venus.
I think they probaly where looking for more longevity than the mission to the moon had when we went to the Moon right after it was opened and they had to change it to Mars a few years later.
Hi I'm Jerren and I'm a Disneyholic...
who knows, so far Disney's done little to update any of their filmed attractions especially in WDW
a upgrade would be nice especially if they could at least update the textures or something, it's just a shame when game consoles are beating you out for real time data rendering (and unlike Midway Mania it's not like your rendering a large interactive scene with a stereoscopic effect, it's a small televison like screen)
It would deffinatly look better if it were an artist rendered screen with someone polishing up each frame and making sure each frame had enough detail
as is though I suppose it still works mostly because the technology behind it is great and very effective at giving the feeling of a space launch.
When I saw something about double-D 3-D, I was thinking that Disney was getting into the adult film industry.Originally Posted by jerren
