Win a trip to space

Why the wheel is still the best invention in the world

If it wasn't for the wheel we would have never learnt to even ride a bike let alone a car. If we would have never been able to ride a car and the wheel didn't exist, nobody would have ever came up with the idea: 'hey let's find a way to fly'

Not only in aviation, just driving a car would have been somewhat impossible to do. We would still be visiting our grandma by horse. And although I like horses I see no need to ride it for four days in a row whenever i would want to go to the sea or something. I say the wheel is the invention that started giving people hope that they would one day be able to get somewhere easily. I say it is the invention that made men realize that they could build things nobody would have ever imagined. And I say the wheel is the stepstone that makes it possible for us dreamers to even enter a competition to fly in space and look down on our planet, which has become so small thanks to our most important invention: the wheel.
