I only just heard (me being slow), Space Mountain at Magic Kingdom had a 7 month refurbishment, all i want to know is, what exactly did they do to it?

By what it says on Screamscape, then they have done a complete refurbishment of the ride.

Now with that said, I’ve heard a bit more information from one of our spies. They tell us that the work on the track should hopefully be noticeable, but it was also a very necessary and major undertaking to ensure the longevity of the ride itself. From what I’m told, the entire track itself was pretty much worked on and modified. The work crews have been adjusting track pieces and welding in new cross-bents to connect the track to the supports, while removing old ones throughout the entire layout. A few new supports were also added to beef up the structure in some needed areas, and there are sections that feature all new track as well. As for the ride experience… the rocket on the lift hill has been repainted, along with new blue exhaust ports.
