Recently I discovered a long-gone attraction at Walt Disney World's Epcot that I found to be quite incredible! Located in Epcot's Future World, the name of the attraction was "Horizons". Boarding omnimover vehicles (much like the Haunted Mansion's doom buggies), guests were taken on a fifteen-minute journey through the future. The experience began with visions of the future as it appeared to those of past generations, then continued with glimpses of our own future. The elaborate detail is quite stunning, and you can see the entire ride in the two videos below:
And for those who are still interested, here's a great site full of details regarding Horizons.

That was interesting, when did they remove the ride? I was there in 2000 and don't remember it.
The ride was removed in 1999 with the end of General Electric's sponsorship. With no one to step in and fill the void, Disney simply shut down the attraction.

That's a shame, explains though why they had the "It's a Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow" song playing in part of it
