Tomorrowland 2055

Tomorrowland 2055 was a scrapped update and makeover of Tomorrowland at Disneyland. It was going to be used to update the current Tomorrowland at the park, but the idea remained scrapped.
==History==
In the early 1990s, there were plans made by Walt Disney Imagineering to reimagine the Disneyland version of Tomorrowland, which would have featured a futuristic approach to give guests experience of what the future would be like, where it would have been set in the fictionalized version of the year of 2055, which would be Disneyland's 100th birthday, and would have featured a population entirely inhabited by aliens. The layout would have featured a unique storyline where there were supernatural crystals which were uncovered during the construction of this upgrade, which were ancient, buried beacons left by sentient beings and later uncovered exposed to the Earth's sun, where the crystals were to transmit messages all across outer space, attracting aliens who forgot about Earth, where Tomorrowland became a perfect place for aliens to rebuild this port, making it a landscape where people and aliens would have worked together..
During development, few areas of this land would have been left undisturbed, with only the major attractions - Space Mountain, Star Tours, and the Submarine Voyage, as well as the Disneyland Monorail and the Tomorrowland station of the Disneyland Railroad, remaining within this upgrade. The rest of the attractions would have been reimagined to match the future's theme such as a carousel theater show, an elaborate version of Rocket Rods (some concept art shows the PeopleMover remaining in operation), as well as an elaborate version of Alien Encounter. However, this upgrade was scrapped, due to the failure of Disneyland Paris around the time, resulting the concept to be reverted to a traditional Tomorrowland style. Despite this, the update came very close to happening, as several elements appeared in Tomorrowland in anticipation of the overhaul:
* An entire area music loop was created, combining newly-composed versions of music from Carousel of Progress, Captain EO, America Sings, and the Disneyland Monorail with music from Epcot, plus a new music theme, and the original recordings of "Go Go Goodyear" from the PeopleMover and the theme music from 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea; this loop was tested in the Space Mountain concourse, and can still be heard in the overflow queue added in 2019
* A mural was built at Tomorrowland Terrace as a test; this, too, is still in place
* T-shirts and jackets with the project's logo were created and distributed to Imagineers working on the project
