I suppose it is a little bit of I Fucking Love Science, but looking at the general arc of human development I don't think it's unreasonable to think that things that are currently mysteries will eventually be solved. After all, what we're doing - talking on the internet - is something that would have been far more difficult and available to only a select few people fifty years ago. Fifty years before that it would have been the realm of pure theory, fifty years before that it would have been science fiction and fifty years before that it would have been inconceivable. Science, in the long term, takes the unimaginable and makes it commonplace.
