Spaceship Earth Rumors

With the wicked wand finally gone from Spaceship Earth it's time to turn our attention to what's going on inside. DisneyGossip has a roundup of the current rumors surrounding the big ball.

A few permits have been filed to modify some of the special effects in the attraction. There has also been some work on the lighting system throughout the attraction. This doesn't surprise me since the new sponsor manufactures light bulbs and would want them used in the attraction where ever possible.

Patrick Stewart (X-files, Star Trek: TNG) is rumored to be the new narrator. Bruce Broughton has been asked to compose the score. Broughton's work for Disney includes Ellen's Energy Adventure and Honey, I Shrunk the Audience. I'm also hearing a new recording of "Tomorrow's Child" will be featured in the attraction.

Sounds like Imagineering may have a few more tricks up their sleeves. I don't know about you, but I'm getting excited.
