Visitors to See Far Into Earth
You'll have plenty of chances to be "up in the air" at Disneyland, what with space stations, rocket rides to the moon, Peter Pan fly-throughs and so on.
But there's only one place where you can take a simulated trip in the other direction... into the weird world thousands of feet underground. That's at a Tomorrowland show called "The World Beneath Us."
To achieve the illusion of a "drop" into another world, producers of the show have come up with a gadget to end all gadgets. It is a model oil reservoir, complete with flowing oil and gas wells.
The dome, or model reservoir, rises out of a Diorama model of the Los Angeles basin and actually works to bring oil out of rock-bound traps and show the powerful forces that exist beneath us.
The unique dome is actually a movie screen shaped like a quarter of a watermelon. Film is projected on the face and curved roof of the model from two synchronized projectors, and film animation is in turn synchronized with mechanical movement. It was "one of the most unusual problems ever to develop in the motion picture business," according to producers of the film portion.
The show takes place in a specially-designed theater in the North Exhibit building in Tomorrowland. In the darkened theater, the spotlighted reservoir produces a "You Are There" feeling that has impressed all who have seen its trial runs.
