Engineering & Curiosity

  • 0:00 - 0:04
    Curiosity is one of humankind’s
    most beautiful traits.
  • 0:04 - 0:07
    We want to know as much as
    possible about the world around us,
  • 0:07 - 0:10
    but to satisfy our need
    to know about the world
  • 0:10 - 0:13
    around us, our eyes just aren’t
    good enough anymore.
  • 0:13 - 0:17
    With the power of engineering,
    we have been able to take a look at worlds
  • 0:17 - 0:21
    hidden inside and outside the narrow
    range of our human senses.
  • 0:21 - 0:25
    We can take a look at the smallest
    lifeforms, our own cells, and even
  • 0:25 - 0:28
    molecules using electron microscopes.
  • 0:28 - 0:32
    Complex machines that make
    invisible things visible,
  • 0:32 - 0:38
    so we can discover worlds inside of
    worlds inside of worlds inside of worlds.
  • 0:38 - 0:41
    Discoveries of the nanolevel
    have changed how we perceive
  • 0:41 - 0:45
    the universe around us forever,
    and led to countless discoveries.
  • 0:45 - 0:49
    On the other hand, just a few centuries
    ago engineers developed powerful
  • 0:49 - 0:53
    tools of science that gave us the ability
    to look deep into space
  • 0:53 - 0:55
    and spot countless wonders
    of the universe.
  • 0:56 - 0:58
    Later came spacecraft and satellites.
  • 0:59 - 1:02
    The Hubble telescope was one of these
    wonders of technology.
  • 1:02 - 1:06
    Without it, we would never have known that
    our galaxy is one of billions in
  • 1:06 - 1:11
    an enormous universe, and even better
    telescopes are being built right now.
  • 1:11 - 1:16
    They’ll be able to show us worlds far, far
    away in much greater detail.
  • 1:16 - 1:19
    So, there is still much left to discover.
  • 1:19 - 1:23
    The universe is vast, and we have
    so much more to learn.
  • 1:24 - 1:28
    And with the power of engineering and
    our curiosity, who knows what
  • 1:28 - 1:31
    we’ll be able to discover in the future.
