Disneyland's Space Mountain

Disneyland's Space Mountain is actually sunk 17 feet into the ground so it won't dwarf the Sleeping Beauty Castle.

Space Mountain was designed by Bill Watkins of Walt Disney Imagineering.

The attractions that originated in Walt Disney World and were duplicated in Disneyland is Space Mountain, Country Bear Jamboree, Mickey's House, and Innoventions (coming in new Tomorrowland in the Carrousel Theatre).

The entire park compressed air system is ran by one huge air compressor backstage. If the air pressure gets too low the rides that it supplies will stop functioning as a safety feature. Space Mountain, the Bobsleds, and Big Thunder all share this compressed air line.
