I believe that humans have an inherent desire to make sense of the world around them and where we are in this system. This can be supported by the creation of religion, searching for pattern, astronomy, physics, etc. If this is the case, then it logically follows that humans will study the deeper workings of nature, and that they will want to.

Through these two avenues, we can find where we fit in the greater structure of the universe.
