The Exploration Station combines a movie-like audiovisual show using a high-definition, rear projection screen and Bose surround sound with motion of the ride compartments. It makes horizontal pitches, longitudinal rolls and vertical lifts.

The fully enclosed capsule holds seven passengers and moves in six directions. Each ride is approximately five minutes. The Exploration Station is located in the Lower Central Pavilion.
