Seeing the Disney Park rollercoaster with the light on is mostly a matter of luck. But one TikToker offered a hack this week for the best opportunity:
@disney_with_bren What is your fav ride?? @disneyparks #wdw50 #disneytravelplanner #mickeytravelsbrenda #waltdisneyworld #disneyparks #magickingdom #spacemountain
The Guest said that Space Mountain had been down all morning, so she decided to ride the Tomorrowland Transit Authority PeopleMover to get a glimpse inside the ride. The PeopleMover is a slow-moving tram that takes Guests on a tour of Tomorrowland and through the darkness of Space Mountain!
The TikToker also provided jaw-dropping footage of the lit-up coaster, which looks much more cramped than it seems onboard.

Of course, the lights won’t be on just because Space Mountain is broken down. But it’s worth a try for any die-hard Disney Parks fans who want to live their galactic dreams!

Blast off on a rip-roaring rocket into the furthest reaches of outer space on this roller-coaster ride in the dark.
Zoom Through the Galaxy
Dip and careen into the inky blackness as a futuristic soundtrack echoes all around you. Fly past shooting stars and celestial satellites. Roar past streaking orbs of light, wayward comets and migrant meteors. Feel the pull of gravity as you’re drawn into a swirling wormhole!
