* * Star Award

The Enterprise is a member of X-Sector at Alton Towers. It moved from Festival Park in 1998 and continues to be a very popular ride.

The ride is manufactured by Huss. After entering your carriage the ride begins spinning at high speed. The ride then lifts up and you spin at an angle, the angle moves loser and closer towards 90º and eventually you find yourself spinning alost vertically.

This ride can be quite nausiating and it may come as quite a shock to discover that there are no harnesses within the carriage but the G Force ensures that your behind does not leave the seat.
