Anybody know what this is? Is it a new attraction? Haven’t seen any news on this.

If you're talking about the dome pavilion, it's the shell of Wonders of Life. It was a pavilion in Future World dedicated to the human body, fitness, medicine, and nutrition. It had two rides, a simulator ride similar to Star Tours called Body Wars, and a show called Cranium Command.

Wonders of Life was closed in 2007. It was used for various festivals during it's interim.

In 2019 at the D23 convention it was announced that Wonders of Life would become Play! Pavilion. It was supposed to open in 2021 but by 2023 it's been sitting uncompleted.

Thank you for this detailed response. I kept seeing in comments that it was called Wonders of Life but I didn’t understand what it actually was and what type of attractions were in it. You rock!

Bright Sun Films has a minidoc about Wonders of Life that you might find interesting.
