The "Golf Ball" is a geodesic dome housing one of Epcot's main attraction, "Spaceship Earth" which, as you ride an omnimover spiraling all the way to the top, details the history and future of communication. It's the icon of Epcot.
The concept of the geodesic dome itself is that it's a remarkable structure; sturdy and economical, it might very well be the building of the future.
