The Universe of Energy pavilion at Epcot featured a solar-powered ride that taught passengers about energy. It originally opened in 1982, before being replaced by Ellen’s Energy Adventure in 1996— this version featured Ellen DeGeneres and Bill Nye. The ride closed in 2017 to make room for a new “Guardians of the Galaxy” attraction, and its fate was sealed when, on its last day of operation, it broke down, and passengers had to be evacuated.
