'''''Star Tours''''' was a [[The Walt Disney Company|Disney]] [[Wikipedia:Simulator ride|simulator ride]] [[Wikipedia:Amusement park|theme park]] attraction located at [[Wikipedia:Disneyland|Disneyland]] at [[Wikipedia:Disneyland Resort|Disneyland Resort]] in [[Wikipedia:California|California]], [[Wikipedia:Disney's Hollywood Studios|Disney's Hollywood Studios]] at [[Wikipedia:Walt Disney World Resort|Walt Disney World]] in [[Wikipedia:Florida|Florida]], [[Wikipedia:Tokyo Disneyland|Tokyo Disneyland]] at [[Wikipedia:Tokyo Disney Resort|Tokyo Disney Resort]] in [[Wikipedia:Tokyo|Tokyo]], [[Wikipedia:Japan|Japan]] and [[Wikipedia:Disneyland Park (Paris)|Disneyland Park]] at [[Wikipedia:Disneyland Paris|Disneyland Paris]] in [[Wikipedia:Paris|Paris]], [[Wikipedia:France|France]]. It was the park's first attraction that did not use Disney-designed imagery.

Groups of visitors, or "passengers," were taken on by the fictional travel agency known as [[Star Tours/Legends|Star Tours]], via a space tour vessel called the [[StarSpeeder 3000/Legends|StarSpeeder 3000]] and set in the ''Star Wars'' universe. Thanks to an inexperienced and thoroughly incompetent [[Droid/Legends|droid]] pilot named [[RX-24/Legends|RX-24]], what was billed as a leisurely tour to the [[Endor/Legends|Endor]] moon became a wild ride as the tour got caught up in a battle between the [[Galactic Empire/Legends|Empire]] and the [[Alliance to Restore the Republic/Legends|Rebels]].

The first incarnation of the ride appeared in Tomorrowland at [[Wikipedia:Disneyland|Disneyland]] in [[1987]], replacing the attraction [[Wikipedia:Adventure Thru Inner Space|''Adventure Thru Inner Space'']]. The original ''Star Tours'' closed in [[2010]] ([[July 27]] in [[Wikipedia:Disneyland|Disneyland]], [[September 8]] in [[Wikipedia:Disney's Hollywood Studios|Disney's Hollywood Studios]]) while Disney engineers built the updated and renovated ride, ''[[Star Tours: The Adventures Continue]]'', which opened on [[May 20]], [[2011]]. [[Wikipedia:Tokyo Disneyland|Tokyo Disneyland's]] version of the original ride closed in April [[2012]] to make way for the updated ride in Spring [[2013]].<ref>{{EndorExpress|url=star-wars-adventures/star-tours-2/2011/11/star-tours-the-adventures-continue-opening-in-tokyo-disneyland-spring-2013|text=Star Tours: The Adventures Continue opening in Tokyo Spring 2013|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20200728144821/https://www.endorexpress.net/star-wars-adventures/star-tours-2/2011/11/star-tours-the-adventures-continue-opening-in-tokyo-disneyland-spring-2013}}</ref> Disneyland Paris's version closed on [[March 16]], [[2016]] to make way for the update.

Some footage from the original ride appeared years later as part of a flight simulator in the [[Star Wars: Millennium Falcon (attraction)|''Star Wars'': Millennium Falcon]] themed area of the ''Disney Dream'' cruise ship.<ref name="Youtube The DIS">{{Youtube|video=KnSIv6hnZl0|text=Classic Star Tours on the Millennium Falcon on the Disney Dream|channel=UC7SjQGMropNWcVKwtwVQkbg|channelname=The DIS|archivedate=20220512193115}}</ref>

==Plot summary==
[[File:Star_tours_logo.svg|250px|right|The ''Star Tours'' logo]]
Advertised as "The Ultimate Star Wars Adventure!," ''Star Tours'' puts the guest in the role of a space tourist en route to the Forest Moon of [[Endor/Legends|Endor]] via the "Star Tours" travel agency. Much is made of this throughout the ride queue, and the design and theme of the inside holding area is convincingly modeled to look like a spaceship boarding terminal. This area is stocked with [[Wikipedia:Audio-Animatronics|Audio-Animatronic]] characters that seem to interact with the ride patrons including [[Mon Calamari/Legends|Mon Calamari]] technicians and versions of [[C-3PO/Legends|C-3PO]] and [[R2-D2/Legends|R2-D2]], as well as a life-size mock-up of the [[StarSpeeder 3000/Legends|StarSpeeder 3000]], the "[[Starship/Legends|starship]]" that guests embark on. The figures of C-3PO and R2-D2 in the Disneyland park are actual props from the original film, modified to operate via [[Wikipedia:Audio-Animatronics|Audio-Animatronics]].<ref name="DD book">Trahan, Kendra. ''Disneyland Detective: An Independent Guide to Discovering Disney's Legend, Lore, and Magic''. Permagrin Publishing (2004).</ref>

Once guests reach the head of the line, the ride operators escort them into one of several ride theaters. As the doors close, the ship's bumbling [[RX-24/Legends|RX-24]] pilot [[Droid/Legends|droid]], a.k.a. "Rex" (voiced by [[Paul Reubens]]), chats up the guests about the trip as he sets up. All goes well until a slight mistake on Rex's part sends the ship down the wrong tunnel and plummeting into a maintenance yard, just managing to escape into open space before a giant mechanical appendage nearly crushes the ship.

Once in space, the ship enters [[Hyperspace/Legends|hyperspace]], but Rex disengages its [[Hyperdrive/Legends|hyperdrives]] too late to stop at the ship's intended destination&mdash;and instead gets caught inside a [[Comet/Legends|comet]] field. The ship becomes trapped inside one of the larger comets and has to navigate its way out through a maze of passages and chambers. Just when all the trouble seems to be over, the ship encounters a [[Star Destroyer/Legends|Star Destroyer]] and finds itself caught in its tractor beam. However, a timely attack (providing assistance by destroying the tractor beam generator) by a [[Alliance to Restore the Republic/Legends|Rebel]] [[X-wing starfighter/Legends|X-wing]] fighter allows them to escape. Soon the ship and its tourists find themselves accompanying the Rebellion on a massive assault on the [[Death Star/Legends|Death Star]] (which Death Star is unspecified). Rex uses the StarSpeeder's lasers to eliminate [[TIE/LN starfighter]]s while a Rebel destroys the Death Star in the same manner as [[Luke Skywalker/Legends|Luke Skywalker]] does in [[Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope|''Star Wars'': Episode IV ''A New Hope'']]. A final light-speed jump sends the StarSpeeder back to where it started, but not before a near-collision with a [[fuel truck]] in the spaceport.

==Development==
[[File:Starspeeder_3000_specifications.jpg|thumb|left|250px|Technical specifications for the [[StarSpeeder 3000/Legends|StarSpeeder 3000]] (from the [[Wikipedia:Disney's Hollywood Studios|Disney's Hollywood Studios]] version of the ride)]]
The ride that became ''Star Tours'' first saw light as a proposal for an attraction based on the [[1979]] Disney live-action flop [[Wikipedia:The Black Hole|''The Black Hole'']]. It was planned as an interactive ride simulator attraction, where guests would have had the ability to choose the ride car's route. After preliminary planning, the ''Black Hole'' attraction was shelved due to its enormous cost (approximately $50 million US) as well as the unpopularity of the film itself.<ref name="EE Creating">{{EndorExpress|url=star-wars-adventures/star-tours/creating-star-tours/2009/08/creating-fantasies|text=Creating Fantasies|archivedate=20210228061116}}</ref> Instead of completely dismissing the idea of a simulator, the company decided to make use of a partnership between Disney and [[George Lucas]] that began in [[1986]] with the opening of [[Wikipedia:Captain EO|''Captain EO'']] (a 3D musical film starring Michael Jackson) at the California park. Disneyland then approached Lucas with the idea for the ''Star Tours'' amusement ride.{{Fact}}

With his approval, [[Wikipedia:Walt Disney Imagineering|Disney Imagineers]] purchased four large military flight simulators at a cost of $500,000 each and designed the ride structure. Meanwhile, Lucas and his team of special-effects technicians at [[Industrial Light & Magic]] (ILM) worked on the first-person-perspective film that would be projected inside the simulators. When both simulator and film were completed, a programmer then sat inside and, with the aid of a joystick, manually synchronized the movement of the simulator with the apparent movement on the film. On January 9, 1987, at a final cost of $32 million (almost twice the cost of building the entire park in 1955), the ride finally opened to throngs of patrons, many of whom dressed as ''Star Wars'' characters for the occasion. In celebration, Disneyland remained open for a special 60-hour marathon from 10:00am on January 9, 1987 to 10:00pm on January 11, 1987.<ref name="SWI-104" />

==Ride system==
''Star Tours'' utilized a Thomson [[Wikipedia:Hydraulics|hydraulic]] motion base cabin featuring 3 degrees of freedom.

The film was front projected onto the screen from a [[Wikipedia:70 mm film|70mm film]] projector located beneath the cockpit barrier. George Lucas mentioned that the [[Star Tours: The Adventures Continue|next generation]] of the attraction would feature digital high-definition video and motion bases capable of up to 6 degrees of freedom.

==Marketing==
[[File:Star_Tours.jpg|thumb|left|250px|''Star Tours'' at Disney's Hollywood Studios]]
When the ride opened, ''Star Tours'' press kits were released. They each contained interviews with George Lucas, Disney's [[Wikipedia:Michael Eisner|Michael Eisner]], and C-3PO. The video portion of the kit lasts about an hour, with a large part of it devoted to the ride's opening ceremony, and a play with actors dressed as [[Luke Skywalker/Legends|Luke]], [[Han Solo/Legends|Han]], [[Leia Organa Solo|Leia]], [[Chewbacca/Legends|Chewbacca]], and [[Anakin Skywalker/Legends|Darth Vader]]&mdash;dancing around and acting out several scenes from the ''Star Wars'' films.<ref name="Press Kit">{{Youtube|video=cfGBk-BXq-0|text=Star Tours Press Kit VHS|channel=UCQPq8r6I4OVQb0QITPiAVDQ|channelname=The Imperial Academy|archivedate=20220314174500}}</ref>

There was also a TV special that aired around the time of the opening of the ride. The program&mdash;entitled [[George Lucas' Star Tours|George Lucas' ''Star Tours'']] and designed to promote the ride&mdash;aired in late [[1986]], and was hosted by [[Wikipedia:Gil Gerard|Gil Gerard]] and [[Wikipedia:Ernie Reyes Jr.|Ernie Reyes Jr.]]. The show looks at how ''Star Tours'' was made, as well as the history of space travel and space-related films. Some highlights of the program include a segment at the beginning, where C-3PO and R2-D2 make an appearance and perform a rap song, as well as a segment at the end, where Reyes boards the StarSpeeder 3000&mdash;giving away some teasers of the ride itself.<ref name="GL ST">[[George Lucas' Star Tours|George Lucas' ''Star Tours'']]</ref>

As part of the ''Star Tours'' experience, upon exiting the StarSpeeder 3000, passengers are led to a store which sells merchandise based on ''Star Wars'' and the ride itself. This includes action figures, clothing, etc. At Disneyland the store is [[The Star Trader]].<ref name="AtoZ-Star">{{D23|url=a-to-z/star-traders|text=Disney A to Z's Star Trader page|archivedate=20201128223405}}</ref> At Disney's Hollywood Studios, the store was originally called [[Tatooine Traders|Endor Vendors]], and had a theme based on Endor with a facade modeled after the back door of the [[Endor shield generator bunker]]. Around the release of [[Star Wars: Episode I The Phantom Menace|Episode I]], that store was replaced by [[Tatooine Traders]], themed to resemble the buildings of [[Mos Eisley/Legends|Mos Eisley]] and [[Mos Espa/Legends|Mos Espa]].<ref name="AtoZ-TT">{{D23|url=a-to-z/tatooine-traders|text=Disney A to Z's Tatooine Traders page|archivedate=20201129195137}}</ref> Both stores included some [[Star Wars: Star Tours|exclusive merchandise]] sold only at Disney theme parks, including action figures of the various droids seen in the ride and queue and StarSpeeder 3000 toys.

==Canonicity==
[[File:StarToursEntrance98_wb.jpg|thumb|250px|Disneyland ''Star Tours'' entrance in 1998 after makeover]]
The canonicity of the events depicted in ''Star Tours'' has been disputed for many reasons, the most obvious being the inclusion of the Death Star. Since R2-D2's presence aboard the StarSpeeder precludes the events taking place during the [[Battle of Yavin/Legends|Battle of Yavin]] or the [[Battle of Endor/Legends|Battle of Endor]], the Death Star seen in the ride video has been considered by some to be the [[Death Star prototype]], as seen in ''[[Jedi Search]]'' and ''[[Champions of the Force]]'', and its destruction to be a depiction of the prototype's destruction at [[The Maw]]. However, it does not match that prototype's skeletal construction, and R2-D2 is accounted for during that event. Also, the ''Star Tours'' Death Star is close to Endor, far from the Maw's location. This may indicate it is a so-far-unrevealed Death Star, or that the ride's events are simply not canonical. Leland Chee, in a timeline he created, implied that the first possibility was true. Others have suggested that the Death Star is a modification of one of the [[habitation sphere]]s seen under construction over [[Coruscant/Legends|Coruscant]]. This was later confirmed in [[Supreme Commander]] [[Ennix Devian]]'s entry for the second part of the blog series [[The Imperial Warlords: Despoilers of an Empire]].<ref name="The Imperial Warlords 2">{{SW|url=news/the-imperial-warlords-despoilers-of-an-empire-part-2|text=The Imperial Warlords: Despoilers of an Empire, Part 2|int=The Imperial Warlords: Despoilers of an Empire}}</ref>

The events of ''Star Tours'' may take place after [[Star Wars: Episode V The Empire Strikes Back|''Star Wars'': Episode V ''The Empire Strikes Back'']] since after the destination of Hoth is advertised on the large video screen in the queue area, C-3PO mentions the events of the film. In 2005, Lucasfilm's [[Leland Chee]] tentatively dated the events of the ride at [[4 ABY/Legends|4.3 ABY]].<ref name="KOTHB" /> This was later confirmed in the 2013 blog [[Convenient Daily Departures: The History of Star Tours]], which also explained R2-D2 and C-3PO's presence at Star Tours as being their being loaned to the company by their owners during the latter stages of the [[Nagai–Tof War]].<ref name="Convenient Daily Departures">{{SW|url=news/convenient-daily-departures-the-history-of-star-tours|text=Convenient Daily Departures: The History of ''Star Tours''|int=Convenient Daily Departures: The History of Star Tours}}</ref>

As with all material released prior to [[April 25]], [[2014]], questions of canonicity regarding ''Star Tours'' apply only to the continuity of the Expanded Universe, now known as [[Star Wars Legends|''Star Wars'' Legends]], and its story is considered entirely non-canon within the current continuity of canon.<ref name="End of EU">{{SW|url=news/the-legendary-star-wars-expanded-universe-turns-a-new-page|text=The Legendary ''Star Wars'' Expanded Universe Turns a New Page}}</ref>

===Legends references===
[[File:STours.png|thumb|250px|Map with some of the locations Star Tours operated on, including Earth]]
While the events of the ride themselves may be questionably canonical, the Expanded Universe (now known as ''Legends'') made a number of references to the fictional travel agency and its ships:
*Several aliens from the ''Star Wars'' theatrical films and offshoot productions make appearances in the opening safety video: Some [[Mon Calamari/Legends|Mon Calamari]], a [[Gran/Legends|Gran]], a [[Wookiee/Legends|Wookiee]] (a [[Chewbacca/Legends|Chewbacca]] costume), and [[Teek]] from ''[[Ewoks: The Battle for Endor]]''.
*In the PC game [[Star Wars: TIE Fighter|''TIE Fighter'']], in the first TIE Interceptor historical mission, when the player uses sensors to identify a [[Lambda-class T-4a shuttle/Legends|''Lambda''-class shuttle]] its name reads "[[Startour 7]]," and its cargo is listed as "Tourists."<ref name="TIE Fighter">[[Star Wars: TIE Fighter|''TIE Fighter'']]</ref>

*The article ''[[Endor and the Moddell Sector]]'' in ''[[Star Wars Gamer 9]]'' explains that a short-lived travel agency offered trips to Endor before accidents and mismanagement drove them out of business. It also suggests that those trips happened in the [[New Republic era]]. The article includes an illustration of a StarSpeeder 3000 at a landing site on Endor.<ref name="SWG9">{{GamerCite|9|Endor and the Moddell Sector}}</ref>
*In the ''[[Star Wars Galaxies]]'' game, players encounter the crash site of the Star Tours ship ''[[Tzarina]]'' on Dathomir. The crash is blamed on an incompetent droid captain who got too close to what sounds like the [[Battle of Yavin/Legends|Battle of Yavin]].<ref name="SWG">{{SWG|An Empire Divided}}</ref>

==Cameos==
[[File:Star_Tours_-_Muren_Eddy_Mullaly_cameo.jpg|180px|thumb|left|Muren, Eddy, and Mullaly]]
Many background characters seen in the pre-flight videos and the ride film itself are portrayed by ILM employees who worked on the attraction. In the pre-ride video, modelmaker [[Bill Beck]] is a technician performing the final pre-flight walk-around of the StarSpeeder.<ref name="SWI-104" />

[[File:Star_Tours_Ira_Keeler_EE.jpg|180px|thumb|right|Ira Keeler]]
Visual effects supervisor [[Dennis Muren]], camera operator [[Selwyn Eddy]] and modelmaker [[Claudia Mullaly]] appear at the beginning of the ride as crew members working in the maintenance area of the starport when RX-24 nearly crashes the ship into their office, sending the trio diving for cover behind a desk. Another worker seen ducking behind a desk before Rex crashes into a fuel truck towards the ride's end was played by modelmaker [[Ira Keeler]] (the character was in the past erroneously identified as being played by George Lucas).<ref name="SWI-104" />

The more prominent character of X-wing pilot [[Red Leader (Star Tours)|Red Leader]], seen shouting a warning to the speeder on the in-cabin video screen, was played by model shop supervisor [[Steve Gawley]].<ref name="ILM book">{{BookCite|author=Vaz, Mark Cotta|container=|title=Industrial Light & Magic : into the digital realm|publisher=Del Rey|date=1996|link=https://archive.org/details/industriallightm0000vazm}}</ref>

**The announcer calls out for an illegally parked speeder with license number THX-[[1138 (number)|1138]], which is the name of the first studio film made by George Lucas.
**The announcer pages a "Mr. Egroeg Sacul." The name is "George Lucas" spelled backwards.
**A voice says there is a message for "Mr. Tom Morrow," who was a character in Disneyland's now-defunct ''Flight to the Moon'' attraction and later became a separate character for [[Wikipedia:Innoventions|Innoventions]] at Epcot and Disneyland Park in 1998.
*The StarSpeeder 3000 has several blast marks, one of which appears to resemble a [[Wikipedia:Hidden Mickey|Hidden Mickey]].
*The G2 repair droids in the queue line are actually the skeletons of [[Wikipedia:Audio-Animatronics|Audio-Animatronic]] geese from an old Disneyland show, [[Wikipedia:America Sings|''America Sings'']]. They were removed from the show during the last two years of its run.<ref name="SWI-104" /> The droids can be heard singing "I've been working on the same droid, all the live-long day," a reference to the geese singing "[[Wikipedia:I've Been Working on the Railroad|I've Been Working on the Railroad]]" during ''America Sings''. ''[[The New Essential Guide to Droids]]'' nicknamed the G2s "Goose droids" as a nod to this show.<ref name="9 Facts" />

*One of the droids, [[DL-X2]], was a modified version of an Imagineer-developed prop for the robot TK4600 from the NBC police drama series ''Hill Street Blues''.

===Ride film===
*At Disneyland in Anaheim, California, ''Star Tours'' replaced an attraction known as ''Adventure Thru Inner Space'', in which guests were notionally shrunk to microscopic size. Exiting the first scene during the ''Star Tours'' film, the Mighty Microscope from the old ride can be seen.<ref name="SWI-104" />
*On Captain Rex, a bright red tag can be seen attached to his torso. The tag says "Remove before Flight." This tag is a reference to similar labels placed on some aircraft parts.<ref name="9 Facts" />
*Rex "[[I have a bad feeling about this|has a very bad feeling about this]]" when the ship flies into one of the comets. This is a [[Wikipedia:Running gag|running gag]] in the ''Star Wars'' films.
*At least two revisions have been made to the ride's script since its inception. After the StarSpeeder passes the moon of Endor, the original version had Rex asking R2-D2 "Now what's the matter? Oh no! Comets!" The modified line is, "Now what's the matter? Comets? Comets!" and adds "I have a very bad feeling about this."{{Fact}}
*The fuel tanker that the StarSpeeder 3000 almost runs into has a registration number on its side. The number is Lucasfilm's old office phone number.{{Fact}}
*Rex is voiced by Paul Reubens, best known for playing the character [[Wikipedia:Pee-wee Herman|Pee-wee Herman]]. Despite rumors that Reubens' voice was replaced following his 1991 or 2002 arrests, no such replacement occurred.<ref name="SWI-104" /> One of the droids in the queue says, "You got a camera. Why don't you take a picture? It'll last longer!," which is a Paul Reubens quote.
*During the ride, Rex says "I've always wanted to do this!"
