The lack of a sponser is a MAJOR factor in why Wonders of Life is no more.

I'll miss it, but I would love to see something original and Future Worldish to go in its place.

I thought that the wonders of life pavilion still exists, but is only open during the summer. I haven't been to WDW since 1998 so I'm not necessarily up to speed with whats going on, but thats what I remember hearing. I also heard that they took out Body Wars to use the simulators for Star Tours at HKDL. Am I right or wrong?

^ Well, that used to be the case. But Wonders of Life is closed permanently now. It's a shame. I really liked that pavilion.

Yup It's closed for good. It closed because it had no sponser. That usually isn't an issue, but it was way outdated, and it would cost quite a lot to fix that. Perhaps in the future there will be a proper sponsorship.
