It opened in 1965 as Harris County Domed Stadium and was nicknamed the "Eighth Wonder of the World". (A team owner is quoted as saying that the "rent for the Astrodome was the ninth".) Reliant Energy purchased naming rights to the building in 2000.
The Houston Astros began playing in the Astrodome in 1965. It was also the year the team changed their name from the Colt .45's to the Astros.
