Our unquenchable desire to explore the unknown, to challenge what was previously thought impossible is a fundamental part of our nature.
The leaps and feats of technological innovation and new scientific discoveries are redefining us as a species in ways we don't even understand yet...
From the micro to the macro, we're constantly finding new limits and layers, understanding more and more about the building blocks that make up the universe around us.
From the very deepest, darkest corners of the undiscovered ocean to the ever impressive feats of engineering that tower higher and stretch further.
From new insights in to the inner workings of our consciousness, to the ever evolving complexity of our global societies and environments.
It's a fascinating and exciting time, but with this comes dangers...this irresistible curiosity is so strong that the thought of whether we should is all too easily eclipsed with whether we could!
