Answer:
It is absolutely true; if you want to discover new lands, you will have to go away from your shore and lose sight of it where you have been habitual of living. We may call it getting out of our comfort zone. All great discoveries were made by daring to go away and explore the unexplored. Columbus found America by losing the sight of Spanish shores. The space explorations also could be done by satellites or rockets that went far away from the shores of the earth. NASA and ISRO found new things in space by leaving the sight of earth’s shores. Spirit, Curiosity, and Opportunity, the rovers on Mars could only land on the red planet when they lost sight of earth’s shores for a long time. Now ISRO’s Pragyan rover is going to land on the Moon only because it dared to leave earth’s shores. So if you want to discover new lands, be prepared to lose sight of the shores you are habitual of living on.
