If we were just suited to this world, wouldn’t we better understand it?
It’s a small world after all? No; as we reach, discovery doesn’t make the world smaller. The conquest of the moon still cannot bring it here; our world gets larger, expanding to within boundaries of the next checkpoint reached. As we push forward, are we getting closer to an outer limit that for now, we cannot even conceive of as existing? Will there be a wall we hit at some point in a future time where time is gone and space no longer is explorable, but all been seen and felt and known?
Or do we move ahead in stages of our lives…and rest between.
