By 6 Comments

Plus, the Galactic Starcruiser (the Star Wars Hotel), will transport guests INTO the Star Wars universe like never before!

Sure, we’re always keeping up with Disney patents for their latest innovations and we’ve experienced some of the CRAZIEST tech firsthand like on Disney World’s Rise of the Resistance.
