This attraction is an enclosed coaster that features a reverse-launch and 360-degree rotation, placing riders in the middle of a space chase with the Guardians of the Galaxy. Before the ride begins, guests explore a planetarium-like exhibition called the Galaxarium, which showcases the technology and wonders of the fictional planet Xandar.
