The Mars sculpture outside of Mission: SPACE at EPCOT is still undergoing a refurbishment to combat discoloration.

The Mars structure, which houses the entrance area for the Green and Orange teams for Mission: SPACE currently has a row of nine black panels that will either be replaced or restored back to their red-orange color.

At a closer look, it is clear the left side of the planet has had its panels refurbished, while the top right still awaits an update. We first noted the wear to the red planet a year ago, with large sections going gray under the intense Florida sun. The structure was blocked off in late May of 2023, as refurbishment on the Mission: Space exterior began.

Elsewhere, in front of the Space 2020 Restaurant sign, another planetary mosaic has been added to the pavement.

This planet is blue and yellow with some touches of white and gray pieces. It joins a number of galactic mosaics that have been added to Planetary Plaza since the refurbishment began.
