Discovery

    For my birthday, I received the gift of a globe. It’s one of those beautifully illustrated old globes that represent a time where the world was still full of frightening sea-monsters, fire-breathing dragons and unexplored continents. Ignorance did not stop cartographers from filling in the blanks with imagination and melodramatic flair. It’s a wonderful reminder of how far our explorations have taken us in a few hundred years. Do you think that, a few centuries from now, we will look back at our current technologies, medicines, politics, economics and psychology with the same head-shaking incredulity? There’s so much still to discover.
