Simplified Meaning:
Imagine you have the smartest phone in the world, but you don't know how to use it. It's fancy and full of features, but without understanding how it works, it’s just a useless gadget. This quote is saying something similar: if we go to Mars but don't learn to be smarter and wiser here on Earth, it's pointless. For example, in history, many inventions were made to help humans, but without proper knowledge or good intentions, they sometimes caused harm instead. The advice here is to focus on becoming more educated, thoughtful, and intelligent before we take big steps like exploring other planets. By improving ourselves and solving problems on our home planet, we ensure that our achievements in space will be truly meaningful and beneficial.
