The average high school student today knows more about the universe than a scholar a few centuries ago.

Today we live in the most prosperous age humanity has ever experienced. We have transformed this planet, from the composition of its atmosphere to large-scale changes in its landscape and also in terms of the other animals in existence. We light up the night with artificial stars and put people in metal box in the sky, some have even walked on our moon. We put robots on other planets. We’ve looked deep into the past of the universe with mechanical eyes. Our knowledge and our way of acquiring and storing more of it have exploded. Humans dominate this planet, even if our rule is very fragile.

One hand, this is kind of frustrating, on other hand this is a kind of frontier science making it very exciting. It shows us that no matter how much we feel we are on the top of things, on a tiny fragile island (EARTH) in space looking into the sky wondering how our universe works. There is so much left to learn and that is awesome.
