00:00:00.045 --> 00:00:03.540
Curiosity is one of humankind’s
most beautiful traits.

00:00:04.050 --> 00:00:06.835
We want to know as much as
possible about the world around us,

00:00:06.835 --> 00:00:09.750
but to satisfy our need
to know about the world

00:00:09.750 --> 00:00:12.969
around us, our eyes just aren’t
good enough anymore.

00:00:13.249 --> 00:00:16.650
With the power of engineering,
we have been able to take a look at worlds

00:00:16.650 --> 00:00:20.606
hidden inside and outside the narrow
range of our human senses.

00:00:21.126 --> 00:00:25.082
We can take a look at the smallest
lifeforms, our own cells, and even

00:00:25.082 --> 00:00:27.648
molecules using electron microscopes.

00:00:28.198 --> 00:00:31.866
Complex machines that make
invisible things visible,

00:00:31.866 --> 00:00:37.591
so we can discover worlds inside of
worlds inside of worlds inside of worlds.

00:00:38.071 --> 00:00:40.995
Discoveries of the nanolevel
have changed how we perceive

00:00:40.995 --> 00:00:44.989
the universe around us forever,
and led to countless discoveries.

00:00:45.325 --> 00:00:49.294
On the other hand, just a few centuries
ago engineers developed powerful

00:00:49.294 --> 00:00:52.662
tools of science that gave us the ability
to look deep into space

00:00:52.662 --> 00:00:55.170
and spot countless wonders
of the universe.

00:00:55.580 --> 00:00:58.121
Later came spacecraft and satellites.

00:00:58.511 --> 00:01:01.719
The Hubble telescope was one of these
wonders of technology.

00:01:02.009 --> 00:01:06.117
Without it, we would never have known that
our galaxy is one of billions in

00:01:06.117 --> 00:01:10.627
an enormous universe, and even better
telescopes are being built right now.

00:01:10.827 --> 00:01:15.537
They’ll be able to show us worlds far, far
away in much greater detail.

00:01:15.927 --> 00:01:18.930
So, there is still much left to discover.

00:01:19.330 --> 00:01:23.343
The universe is vast, and we have
so much more to learn.

00:01:23.613 --> 00:01:28.197
And with the power of engineering and
our curiosity, who knows what

00:01:28.163 --> 00:01:30.633
we’ll be able to discover in the future.
