Advances in technology, such as improvements in shipbuilding (like the use of caravels) and navigational tools (like the astrolabe and compass), helped explorers travel longer distances and more accurately map their journeys. This increased their ability to navigate unfamiliar territories, leading to the discovery of new lands and trade routes.

What advances in space technology can help us?

Im going off this with what I know, no research was done, but google is a wonderful tool to do so...With advances in Space exploration/technological advances we might one day have a better understanding of how dark matter, wormholes were created. It has been said that traveling through a blackhole will open a paradox to the past, although we both know that any man traveling through a blackhole will automatically be stretched out like a spaghetti noodle. I possibly seem to think that with further advances in space technology we might even be able to accommodate advances in medicine, ie...maybe cures for certain diseases or illnesses. Ive read and seen on television that currently major corporations are designing spacecrafts that will one day have everyone in space and not just the mulit-millionaires. As technology increases the problems arise, but I believe on day the vast amount of space will be one step closer to being explored.
