simulating time travel, at the same time the following is heard:
Announcer: Horizons 2
now departing, TimeJump initialized, Destination, The future.
Grandmother: That
sounds like quite a trip.
Grandfather: My Wifes
right about that! But half the fun is the journey there, so lets go back to
where it all began, the 1800s
Looking back at
tomorrow
The first scene is the
Jules Verne scene which replicates the original.
Grandfather: Theres the
grand old man himself, Jules Verne, floating round in his famous Moonshot.
Grandmother: He had
the right idea, he was just a little ahead of his time.
Grandfather: Yeah,
come on we'll show you what we mean.
This is followed by
the 50s scene.
Grandmother: Ah the
good old 50s.
Grandfather: A bit far
out dont you think? but it looks like good fun!
Grandmother: well
everyone has fun dreams of the future, I know I sure do.
Then the 60s and 70s.
Grandfather: The 60s
and 70s truly had some fantastic views of the future.
Grandmother: Flying
cars, robot servants and easy living, they were really dreaming big.
Grandfather: but with
todays technology were getting closer to it, they had the right ideas, just
maybe not the right style.
Grandmother: I dont know,
I kinda like it, it has a certain charm.
Tomorrow in the 80s
This is where classic
scenes from the ride will be presented, from each section of the ride.
Grandfather: Lets take
a look at what our parents and grandparents thought the future would be like.
The vehicle enters
nova cite.
Grandmother: Hey look,
there's my Grandparents, it looks like Grandmas talking to my mother on that
hologram device.
Grandfather: We sure
had some good ideas for communications in the future.
Grandmother: Thats very
true, I wonder what my grandfathers doing?
Grandfather: Looks
like some kind of instrument, maybe a keyboard?
Grandmother: Cmon lets
go catch some sun.
The vehicle moves into
Mesa Verde farm scene.
Grandmother: and
theres my Mother! Looks like shes operating the harvesters out there in the
field.
Grandfather: Flying
harversters, well I never, Things were still pretty far out even back then.
Grandmother: Sure, but
its not an impossibility, were just not quite there yet.
The vehicle moves into
the sub repair bay at seacastle.
Grandfather: Would you
look at that, im an undersea welder!
Grandmother: Well you
did always have a strange obsession with the sea.
Grandfather: Theres
just as much to explore below as there is above, and theres a lot of raw materials
down here, whats not to love?
Grandmother: Hey look
on the screen over there, that's me!
Grandfather: It sure
is! It seems theres only one more frontier to explore.
The vehicle then moves
into the Brava Centauri scene
Grandmother: Would you
look at that view out there!
Grandfather: Space
sure is breathtaking, back then we sure had some bizarre ideas for space
fashion.
Grandmother: You may
think that, but to them it must have seemed practical.
Grandfather: You
should see the breakthroughs we've had since!
Grandmother: Yes! its
been quite a ride! from the expansion of the internet, to entertainment and
virtual reality, all the way to sending a satelite to Pluto, we have made some
truly amazing leaps.
The vehicle then
enters the first oval room area.
