I have no idea how they did it....we only went once, it was a while ago, and it all happened so fast.....but we totally got transported. I almost died, it was so cool.

Hope this finds a home somewhere.

No, it's much, much cooler than a Pepper's Ghost illusion.

You are standing in a rectangular room with a bunch of other people in the 21st century. There is a bright flash of light, then darkness, then you are all standing in the round transporter bay of the Enterprise in the 24th century. The walls, ceiling, and floor are all completely changed but you experience no sense of motion. And this all happens in less than two seconds. It is an absolutely stunning effect!

I took the behind the scenes tour (which I highly recommend, but ONLY AFTER going on the regular version first!) and learned how it is done. It's absolutely brilliant.
