The ride was closed in late 2010 for refurbishment, and it emerged in 2011 as "Superman: Escape from Krypton". The park originally intended to open the ride in 1996, but the opening was delayed because of several issues with the launch system. These two coasters were the first to utilize Linear Synchronous Motor (LSM) technology to propel vehicles to top speed. When it opened in 1997, it was the tallest roller coaster in the world, and its speed of 100 mph was tied for the fastest with Tower of Terror II, a similar roller coaster which opened two months earlier at Dreamworld in Australia.
