Ray Bradbury, Key Designer for Epcot’s Spaceship Earth, Dies at 91

Ray Bradbury, the author of many Fantasy and Science Fiction stories, has passed away earlier this week at the age of 91.  Bradbury was instrumental in working with the design team in helping to create Spaceship Earth in 1982, and he also contributed in the original storyline for the attraction.  Additionally, he later contributed to the conception of the Orbitron space ride at what was then known as Euro-Disney.

Bradbury was 91, and will be missed. Our thoughts and prayers go out to the family of Mr. Bradbury.
