If you look at it, when it comes to the Worlds Fair scene, it is set in a time where there was a lot of fiction that inspired the hope of a bright and happy future. There were a lot of examples of optimistic future fiction, such as TV shows like ''TV/{{Star Trek}}'' and movies like ''2001: A Space Odyssey'', to which both had inspired a lot of modern tech (including cellphones, MRIs, and even tablet devices). We looked at a lot of the fiction of the time and saw how the future could be. However, in the 1970s and 1980s and throughout the 1990s and 2000s, dystopian and apocalyptic fiction are at a maximum number. You can't go three feet without running into a novel, movie, TV show or video game that involves some sort of aspect of society's collapse. And as a result, we don't hope for a better tomorrow or a bright future where everything can be better, and there are people that are prepped and hoping for societal collapse. The normal adult characters all represented as embittered or appeared to be let down because the world is not what they want it to be (like how every kid used to hope for a better and brighter tomorrow). Casey is a representation of how those adults used to be: she's a dreamer and she wants to know if all the problems can be fixed so that a better tomorrow can come. Various fiction, no matter what medium, tend to be influential towards younger audiences. Many people remember what it was like watching the original ''Star Trek'' when it came on TV. Many people remember that feeling they had when they watched ''Star Wars''.

* Creator/AlanTuring: computer scientist, he was one of the early pioneers in artificial intelligence research. After being found guilty of being gay and sentenced to chemical castration, Plus Ultra decided to not let his genius end in a world where he had gone as far as he could. They took him and faked his death from cyanide poisoning. After taking him to Tomorrowland, they treated him for the castration and once he was well, Turing went back to work on artificial intelligence. Within a few years, he made the breakthroughs necessary that made Athena possible.

Young Frank Walker was seriously injured during the first test "flight" of his jet pack after he crashed headfirst into the ground and through a fence. Placed in a medically induced coma, with his grieving father by his side, he dreamed of a fantastical place where great thinkers play with physics and have unlimited energy reserves.

A celebration of the brand of futurism Plus Ultra represented as a whole, and very much in the spirit of rides about the future Plus Ultra backed in the 30s, the attraction's queue starts in a location known as the Futureport and the ride's opening lines of "Next Stop: The 21st Century!" bring to mind the "Next Stop: Tomorrow" station sign hidden beneath Small World. The suspended vehicle design facing inward could make dropping guests through to a hidden portal room a little more discrete. When the attraction was torn down years later, the story about a sinkhole was actually a cover for Plus Ultra's efforts to destroy the gateway beneath the pavilion.

Ties to Disney aside, Plus Ultra member Ray Bradbury was involved in various attractions at the park such as Spaceship Earth and the original concept for the Space pavilion. However, another attraction would function in the same manner as Small World did in 1964: ''Ride/{{Horizons}}''.
