Astro Orbitor

Astro Orbitor, Amusement ride in Tomorrowland, Hong Kong Disneyland, Hong Kong

Astro Orbitor is a rocket-spinner ride in Tomorrowland at Hong Kong Disneyland. Riders sit in four-person flying-saucer vehicles that circle a central tower, steering a control stick to raise or lower their craft within a range of a few metres. The tower is dressed in a retro-futuristic style unlike the Paris version.

The ride opened with Hong Kong Disneyland in 2005, but its design descends from the 1956 Astro Jets at Disneyland, built by Klaus Company Bavaria. The Paris version, Orbitron, introduced the retro-futuristic look of an armillary sphere, and the Hong Kong attraction follows that design with four-seat UFO vehicles instead of rockets.

The ride's name and design draw on the retro-futurist look of Discoveryland at Disneyland Paris, where the attraction is called Orbitron and its tower resembles an armillary sphere drawn by Galileo. At Hong Kong Disneyland the same concept uses four-seat UFO vehicles rather than rockets, set in Tomorrowland.

Each vehicle seats two people, and there is no minimum height requirement for children. Families can ride together, and the motion stays gentle enough for young children to enjoy comfortably.

The Hong Kong version's vehicles are four-seat UFOs rather than rockets, and its tower follows the retro-futurist design used at Disneyland Paris, though the two look different. The ride sits in Tomorrowland, the name Hong Kong kept instead of Paris's Discoveryland.
