Disney Pic of the Week: Epcot Yesterland

Posted on by Scott Thomas
Remember the hysteria as the year 2000 approached? People were worried computers would stop working and computerized systems from air traffic control towers to thermostats would cause all kinds of problems. I sure do as I was running the computer systems for a manufacturing company. Meanwhile, Disney proudly waved a Mickey-handed wand over Spaceship Earth … Continue reading "Disney Pic of the Week: Epcot Yesterland"

Disney Pic of the Week: Universe of Energy

Back when Epcot first opened in 1982, the concept of using solar panels to produce electricity was still a new and expensive proposition. The Universe of Energy’s roof is filled with such panels which partially power the huge vehicles filled with guests through the attraction teaching when, where, how and what energy is. Universe of … Continue reading "Disney Pic of the Week: Universe of Energy"
