The origins for the attraction date back to early '60s, when following the success of the ''Matterhorn Bobsleds'', which revolutionized the amusement industry by being the first roller coaster to use steel tracking, Walt Disney was eager to add more thrill rides to Disneyland, prompting him to encourage his creative team to come up with an idea for a new indoor roller coaster. The resulting concept was of a space coaster set inside a massive mountain, that was first given the name "Space Mountain" in 1966. The project ended up being shelved for the time being, as it was deemed too implausible to build.
