The Texas Star Ferris wheel was built by SDC Corp. in [[Reggio Emilia|Reggio Emilia, Italy]]. It was then shipped to Dallas for its debut at the [[1985]] State Fair of Texas. The Texas Star requires a staff of 18 employees. The view is one of the things that entices people to ride on it. On a clear day, you can see the Fort Worth skyline which is {{convert|45|mi|km|0}} away. During the fair, the Texas Star is lit up at night by 16,000 incandescent red, white, and blue turbolites. |

The Texas Star is owned by Barbara Brown and her brother, Mike Sandefur. |
