Universe of Energy, Educational dark ride at Epcot, United States.
The Universe of Energy combined large-format films with moving theater cars to transport visitors through exhibits about energy production and resources.
Opening on October 1, 1982, as one of Epcot's original attractions, the ride underwent transformation in 1996 to become Ellen's Energy Adventure.
The attraction presented scientific information about energy sources through multimedia presentations and mechanical dinosaur displays in theater-style vehicles.
The ride system accommodated 80 guests per vehicle across six carriers, resulting in a capacity of 2430 visitors every hour.
The building incorporated solar panels on its slanted roof, generating electricity while demonstrating renewable energy concepts to park visitors.
