SpaceX Falcon 9 Lights the Skies Up Over Disneyland Along Theme Park's Backgroud Music!

SpaceX CEO Elon Musk may have his heart fixed on the moon and Mars, but Earth has not been overlooked. He brought Disneyland visitors a very different spectacular wonder at night, as Cape Canaveral is only a few miles away from the theme park.

SpaceX recently launched the latest Falcon 9 rocket and the sights were stunning at Disneyland. Netizens felt the magic as the social media 'exploded.' Few citizens were curious about UFOs and the launch was known to others.

The Falcon 9 completed the early phase of its rocket launcher that had already made its way to the Atlantic, where the drone ship "Of Course I Still Love You" was waiting for SpaceX to collect the remains. The launch was a collaboration with the United States Space Force.

Here are some images and updates from the Disneyland Resort as seen on social media during the rollout.

Falcon 9's Launch: Climbing Shooting Star from Disneyland

The SpaceX launch was visible in Disneyland, Florida, especially for the park's guests and visitors, according to Inside the Magic.net. Families who were touring the park were in the right proximity to see the flight of SpaceX's Falcon 9 to the night sky.

Around 6:24 pm, the launch took place, an excellent time to enjoy the night activities of the park and have a night sky with the colorful theme park. The skies revealed a speck of light ascending into the sky to travelers, this is nothing other than the arrival of the Falcon 9.

A spectacular video captured by Twitter user Michael (@VirusElite524) shows the SpaceX rocket ship flying towards the night sky with Disneyland's Fantasy Land theme song playing in the background. The encounter by the Twitter consumer is truly one-of-a-kind as the launch coincided with his visit to the theme park.

The rocket ship resembled a "shooting star" flying invertedly, shooting up and beginning its flight into the heavens. The Disneyland "magical experience" guarantee is undoubtedly completed by the theme song "Fantasy Land," along with the appearance of SpaceX's Falcon 9.

Several Disneyland goers also saw the same scenario last 2017. A netizen thought Disneyland had Mars Attacks while the other one believed there was just a meteor shower.

Is Starship Imitating Disney's Space Mountain roller coaster?

But here's when some more fun kicks in. Last year, a Twitter user questioned Musk if passengers could move around on a SpaceX trip. He said Starship would look like a restraint mechanism like Disney's Space Mountain roller coaster."


Space Mountain rides are housed at several of the Disney theme parks. A roller coaster simulates a rocket ride through outer space. It uses a padded restraint that falls into the lap of the horse.


Musk went on to claim that in several aspects, Starship "would feel similar to Space Mountain in a lot of ways, but you'd exit on another continent."

Compared to other launches that took place, the project from SpaceX did not attract as much coverage. The most current mission of Falcon 9 was only a "payload" to send a satellite straight into Earth's orbit and back to the ground.

The Falcon 9 of SpaceX holds the GPS III Satellite and GPS III Space Vehicle 04 from Lockheed Martin, which is actually ascending out of its operating orbit. From there, as required by space agencies or corporations, the space vehicle would go on its way and would be freely accessible for private usage.

The Falcon 9 was only able to get the spacecraft to the operating orbit of the Planet and will proceed to finish its path along the way. The spacecraft, which will be used to deploy solar arrays and antennas, is currently under the supervision of the Space Force team.
