The author discusses the incredible impact that the bird’s eye view from the Eiffel Tower had on citizens as well as artists,  and likens it to the first photograph of Earth from space. Why do you think it is that after being able to perceive microscopic images, the art world has not been so inspired as it was during the beginnings of Moderinism? Are there any other variations in perspective we can hope for? Do such limits explain why we have shifted To a postmodern era of looking back and commenting on the past? Does this also suggest that science and engineering have the same responsibility to be accessible to the public,  as in art, for both fields to thrive?
