Galaxy Orbiter, Indoor steel spinning roller coaster in West Edmonton Mall, Canada
Galaxy Orbiter is an indoor steel spinning roller coaster in Galaxyland that twists and drops through hundreds of meters of track with multiple turns. The ride features sharp curves, descending sections, and helix formations that change direction throughout the route.
Galaxy Orbiter opened on 17 July 2007. It was built by the German firm Gerstlauer above several existing rides, which required removing the Ufo Maze and Rockin' Rocket and temporarily closing the Autosled and Galaxykids Raceway. Since Mindbender's removal, it is the longest coaster in Galaxyland.
Galaxy Orbiter was built by the German firm Gerstlauer and opened on 17 July 2007. To make room for its track, which passes above several other attractions, the Ufo Maze and Rockin' Rocket were removed and the Autosled and Galaxykids Raceway closed temporarily. Since the Mindbender's removal it is the longest coaster in Galaxyland.
Riders must meet a minimum height requirement to board, and seating in cars includes security restraints. Access to the attraction is available through the amusement area within the shopping complex.
Each car spins independently as it travels along the track, creating different sensations for every rider. This rotating motion means no two journeys feel quite the same as passengers experience the track from varying angles.
