The building was constructed for Expo ’86 and served as the Expo Centre. The Science World ‘golf ball’ is actually a geodesic dome, the design of which was created by American inventor R. Buckminster Fuller (1895–1983). The original architect for the Science World dome was Bruno Freschi; the architect for the additions made to transform the Expo Centre into Science World was Boak Alexander.

Technically renamed to Telus World of Science, but still referred to as Science World.
