    In 1956, the first rocket-spinner attraction opened at Disneyland and was known as the Astro Jets.
    The attraction was made by Klaus Company Bavaria and similar to several versions found in traveling carnivals.
    The "jets" made a 50-foot circle around a large red-checkered rocket and guests were able climb upwards of 36 feet in their ride vehicles from the ground level they were boarded at.
    The attraction stood between the Submarine Voyage and Rocket to the Moon
    The name Astro Jets was changed in 1964 when United Airlines, as a new park sponsor (sponsoring "The Enchanted Tiki Room"), contended the name was free advertising for American Airlines' coast-to-coast Astrojet service.
    After this dispute, the name was changed to Tomorrowland Jets.
    The name lasted until September 1966, when the attraction was closed to make room for the new renovated Tomorrowland.
