we are all, im sure, aware that leonardo da vinci was a man far ahead of his own time. In his journals and diaries, he made designs for anything from machine guns, to flying ship-like machines, and even tanks and simple engines from what i know of. So my question is, what if he had come forward? All of these amazing technologies wouldve been implicated, arial combat couldve evolved several hundred years before, it wouldve probably triggered a major industrial, and even more specifically a militaristic revolution. And even more interesting, what would our lives be like now, if he had come forward? I am of course, hypothesizing here, but his major breakthroughs mightve encouraged thousands of others to enter the many fields of science, which couldve resulted in great leaps being taken. It is interesting how one man had the potential to be so influential, and how different the world could be if he had come forward.
