Innovation and exploration in the modern age

Space travel has always been a big interest of mine. What struck me during a recent watch of a space-centered documentary was this.

Technological innovation is not inevitable. 

You have to push. You have to evolve. We have literally thousands of years of evidence to warn us against this very fact. The Egyptians and the pyramids, the Romans and the aqueducts and architecture. The modern day innovators have to rediscover, examine, and take heed from the past in order to push forward toward the future. 

The most important part though may be to make sure we pass what we’ve learned down to future generations. The same holds true for us as men. As we continue to grow and evolve, we have to leave the world and its people in a better place than when we found it.
