How does the myth of Daedalus explain the expression flying too close to the sun?
It's not the myth of JUST Daedalus, it's the myth of Daedalus and Icarus. Icarus was Daedalus' son, and after the master engineer designed the wings, which were held together with wax, he warned his son not to fly to low (as the spray from the water would weigh down the wings) and not to fly too high (as the heat from the sun would melt the wax and the wings would fall apart). Of course, the idiot boy ignored his father, and depending on which myth you find, he either flew too low and fell into the sea, or flew too high and.. fell into the sea.
