New details about the much anticipated Star Wars theme park: Galaxy's Edge of Disney made their appearance Thursday. Gabrielle Russon of Orlando Sentinel announced that the 14-acre Disneyland facility was about 80% complete.
The amusement park will also visit Disney Studios Hollywood, near Orlando.
Disney revealed the names of two attractions that were to open on Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge last year, including Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run and Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance. We now know that it will be the longest in the Disney collection.

"In my opinion, this will be the most ambitious attraction we have ever built," said Bob Chapek, president of Disney Parks, at Sentinel. He added that Rise of the Resistance will represent four attractions in one, as the bike's off-road vehicle will move in different ways. Passengers will even get out of the vehicle at some point to confront Kylo Ren in a holding cell.
Meanwhile, the Millennium Falcon's amusement park spacecraft will measure 110 feet long and will feature many small details that park visitors will be able to admire while they line up to ride Smugglers Run. The motion simulator, described by Russon as "essentially a giant video game evolving in real time", will accommodate six people and will require each driver, gunner and engineer to do their job to keep the Falcon on the run and unscathed.
Much to the delight of Star Wars fans, the park will sell blue milk and green milk. However, frozen iced drinks will not be dairy products and will instead have a taste of tropical berries, melons and citrus, respectively, according to the Sentinel.
Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge will offer a pair of fast food restaurants as well as a cantina serving alcohol and snacks.

The new theme park will also include a workshop where 14 people at a time can build and customize their own lightsabers. In addition, park visitors can even create their own personalized droids.
"I think adult men will cry, I think people will get on their knees and start kissing the floor," said Margaret Kerrison, Disney's Imagineer, at the Sentinel, pointing out that since Disney has created a new planet for thematic park, can use their imagination.
"I want to be able to walk in this country and feel excited," Kerrison added. "I do not want to feel disadvantaged because I do not know all the details needed to know a Star Wars fan."
Last month, Disney's general manager, Bob Iger, alluded to the opening date of Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge during an interview with Barron's in which he announced the opening of the park in Anaheim in June and Florida later this year.
