THE OPTICAL VISION

THE GREATEST INVENTION IN MY OPINION IS THE TELESCOPE BY GALILEO. WITHOUT THOSE NAGGING QUESTIONS WITHIN IN HIS HEAD IE. (I WONDER, WHAT IF, HOW FAR?) WE WOULDN,T BE AS ADVANCED AS WE ARE IN TECHNOLOGY AND ENGINEERING. TO KNOW DISTANCES BETWEEN STARS AND PLANETS ARE ALL DOWN TO THE GENIUS GALILEO, HE PLANTED THE SEED IN PEOPLES IMAGINATION TO VENTURE FORWARD AND PROGRESS IN AREAS THAT WERE ALIEN TO US, TO FEED OUR DESIRE TO KNOW WHAT IS OUT THERE, TO EXPLORE THE UNKNOWN, AND ALSO TO EXPLORE WHAT IS ON OUR OWN PLANET, HELPING PEOPLE WHO ARE VISUALLY IMPARED TO EXPERIENCE THE WONDERS ABLE SIGHTED PEOPLE ARE ABLE TO EXPERIENCE. ALL OF THIS AND MUCH MUCH MORE BECAUSE OF THE TELESCOPE.
