Euro-Mir

Euro-Mir is a space-themed spinning roller coaster located at Europa-Park in Rust, Germany.

[1] Unlike most spinning coasters, however, the cars do not spin freely, but are rotated by motors at set points during the ride.

The ride is modeled on the Soviet/Russian space station Mir.

It consists of five cylindrical towers, with the ride simulating a trip into space and re-entry into the Earth's atmosphere.

The ride opened in 1997 and carries nine trains, each comprising four circular spinning cars.
