The

Seas

• The aquarium is home to eighty different species of marine life and houses over eight thousand creatures.
• The tank itself is two-hundred-and-seven feet in diameter and contains over five million gallons of salt water.
• It used to be the largest aquarium in the world until the Georgia Aquarium surpassed its record.
• You could put the EPCOT ball in the aquarium and still have room to drive a semi truck around it
• If your lucky, you might see Mickey Mouse check in on the aquarium .

Adventure is Out There!

The Land

• The Land Pavilion is home to two rides
• More than 30 tons of fruits and vegetables grown at The Land pavilion each year are served in Walt Disney World restaurants.
• The Land has a "tomato tree" that is the only one of its kind in the United States. The massive plant has produced a world-record harvest of more than 32,000 tomatoes from a single vine.

One Little Spark!

Imagination

The Institute’s beleaguered chairman Dr. Nigel Channing (played by Eric Idle) sets out to prove how the 5 senses capture the imagination—but he’s upstaged by the mischievous Figment!

Prepare for surprises galore as you travel through a series of vivid, whimsical sensory labs. Learn about all 5 senses as Figment turns the lab upside down and causes quite a stink in the Smell Lab.

Let your imagination run wild on this marvelous, madcap musical adventure!

Put the Petal To The Metal

Test

Track

Cruise over to the gleaming Chevrolet Design Center to create your own virtual concept car. When you’re done, buckle up in a 6-passenger “SIM Car” and take it for an exhilarating spin on the test track.

Rev through rough terrain and obstacles along the winding circuit. Accelerate through straightaways, maneuver switchbacks through inclement weather, hug curves banked at 50-degree angles and scale hills up to 3 stories high.

Reach speeds of up to 65 miles per hour as you put your car through its paces. After each test, check the scoreboard to see how your vehicle performed!

You Are Go for Launch

Mission

Space

What’s it like to be an astronaut? You’ll find out on Mission: SPACE!

Before you board, you’ll train for your mission on the X-2 Deep Space Shuttle at the International Space Training Center (ISTC). Each member of your 4-cadet crew will assume an important role: navigator, pilot, commander or engineer. During your flight, cadets will be instructed to initiate a mission-critical sequence… so be prepared!

Next, count down to liftoff—and an incredible mission through space. Dodge meteorites and slingshot around the moon—or enjoy a flight path with breathtaking views of our home planet.

Your crew is counting on you to make the mission a success!
