The idea that Earth was not plain but round meant also that there was part of it unexplored, but also, the world itself had changed; The world itself was another. There was no end beyond the horizon, the sea didn’t fall into the nothingness; the creation wasn’t traveling on the shell of a giant turtle. There was something on the other side, something never seen before. And for some, that was a temptation, a desire of exploring and be the first one to experience the unknown. A world that started to be constructed by imagination.
