This is the best ride ever!!!! even without the VR it's still an amazing experience. It's an magical ride that really does feel like your flying. Galactica is a unique ride. Alton towers gives you loads of unique and amazing rides. Best theme park ever.

I tried it once with VR but because my head is so small it fell off as it went upside down😂 I was in space and then suddenly back at Alton Towers😂 It’s amazing without it though as well

Oh wow. Didn't know Chris Hadfield rode it!

Its a shame they removed the VR, i was looking forward to riding with it. I guess they found it was probably unreliable and slowed down operations too much

I just went on this and thought it was fantastic! Although I'm not sure why it was a bit blurry for me?

@@rolicoli8 nope doesn't do anything for me. Looked exactly the same blurry as shit. The screen looked like it had some liquid smothered over it.

I bet it's sick

It is better without the VR.

Man didn't expect this to be the largest failure in Alton Towers history 😂😂
