[QUOTE="Mercurius, post: 8115741, member: 59082"] I know you specified "terrestrial" but this isn't exactly true, except geographically. The "exotic wilds" are always beyond the edges of what is known, whether terrestrial, extra-terrestrial, or internal. Even as the known expands outward, we live in a vast universe. So there are the "outer wilds" beyond the world, but there are also the "inner wilds" of the mind - the depths of human consciousness which we still do not understand, and may never understand fully. And of course there are plenty of unknowns about our world, and new secrets to discover: the depths of the oceans, both in terms of unknown forms of life and the many likely ruins of lost settlements, even civilizations, that were flooded as sea levels rose 10-50,000 years ago. There's underneath the antarctic ice, and all that we don't know about our past. We are constantly discovering new things and prehistory is still largely unknown, except in broad sketches. [/QUOTE]
