Wonders of Life, Life sciences pavilion in Future World at Epcot, United States.

Wonders of Life is a golden geodesic dome 20 m high and 76.2 m in diameter, set between Mission: SPACE and Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind. Its entrance is marked by a 23 m sculpture of a DNA strand, with gold, pink and light-blue rungs. The 9,290 m² building held Body Wars, Cranium Command and The Making of Me.

The pavilion was announced on January 22, 1988, and construction began the following month; MetLife's sponsorship, signed in June 1988, covered only four years rather than the ten typical of Future World pavilions. It opened on October 19, 1989, at a cost of $100 million. MetLife ended its sponsorship in June 2001, and from January 4, 2004, the pavilion operated seasonally before closing permanently on January 1, 2007.

The pavilion served as a place where visitors learned about the human body through entertainment rather than traditional teaching methods. The attractions made science feel like fun, drawing in families who wanted to explore how their bodies work.

The space now hosts seasonal festivals and changing events at Epcot while maintaining the original building structure. Check ahead to see what is currently happening inside before visiting the distinctive golden dome structure.

Body Wars was the first thrill ride at Epcot and used cutting-edge simulation technology to take visitors on a journey shrunk to microscopic size inside the human body. The ride became memorable for how it combined physics-based motion with storytelling about the body.
