Check out the inside of the Mississippi State Fair Starship 3000 – Climb aboard the fastest graviton in the USA featured at the Mississippi State Fair.
The ride is completely enclosed, with 48 padded panels lining the inside wall. Riders lean against these panels, which are angled back. As the ride rotates, centrifugal force is exerted against the pads by the rider, removing the rider from the floor, due to the slant.
The ride can reach a maximum speed of 24 rpm in less than 20 seconds, due to the 33 kW 3-phase motor. At this speed, the riders are experiencing centrifugal force equivalent to three times the force of gravity.
There is usually a light-up sign on it which usually says “THRILLER” but sometimes this will say the name of the show. On some models this is not on the ride.
The ride operator is located in the center of the ride. Part of the operator’s duty is to control lighting and music in addition to the ride itself.
