| For a while there in the 90's, they played a very cheesy future TV news cast (which you can find on UAB) while you waited in the queue. What was the name of the meteorologist and fashion expert? |

It's been 6 months, Let's relaunch this Forum by igniting a new question...
When you first get to Disneyland's Space Mountain the attraction begins in Space Station 77 (yes, a reference to the year DL's SM opened) where riders board their rocket.
According to the story building in the queue, "Who is the captain of Space Station 77"?
