Our human history is full of examples that show an evolution of what is considered the advancement of enlightenment. When the wheel was invented, when flying became a reality, especially all the way to the Earth's Moon. Now today, we are advancing on the fundamental building blocks of the nature of existence. Our enlightenment as a species has always centered on the accumulation of knowledge. One thing that is paramount to human survival is the basic understanding that learning and obtaining knowledge is foundational to human survival. We may have reached a plateau in our society where some think that learning is not as important as living competitively in motivational way, such as work ethic being greater than discovery, however those few would be wrong. Nothing speaks more to our natures as humans, as being curious as to why we are here in this existence. Maintaining a civilized society is just the plan we use to allow for us to mature into all available knowledge possible. The inner workings of society and how we have subjectively designed it is an abstraction and not the ultimate goal of our destiny, is troublesome. We are a species, by our very abilities to gather data, that are inherently curious to the creation and discovery of our surroundings. For millenniums we were satisfied with just trying to understand the terra firma and the oceans at our feet. We moved beyond that with star-gazing and Earth orbital looking glasses. We are now staged to spend more time moving outside our planet to other places where life can be supported. it is our nature to discover and learn. It is who we are and the mechanisms for the day to day interactions we devise are maintenance and growth operations, hopefully to assist us in our quest to follow our instinct to become more enlightened about that which envelopes us.
