I have a question

From: Miranda

To: 496e20616c6c207468696e6773206f66206e617475726520746865 726520697320736f6d657468696e67206f6620746865206d617276656 c6f75732e

I was doing some reading while the last trial was running and I came across something I don't understand. There are a lot of references to ancient humans feeling that science is boring. To me everything we're studying is mind-bendingly incredible, whether it's quark-gluon deconfinement or neutrino-antineutrino oscillations, or even something incredibly basic like the properties of light.

I understand why our ancestors cared about art, why a beautifully-crafted story or poem was moving to them. But how could they not see that everything that surrounds us is just as incredible? Studying science is like studying the most incredible machine ever created, a machine designed to build worlds and tell stories.

How could they not see that? I'm sure there's a good explanation but I don't get it.
