Well, f**k. If it wasn't for our propensity towards violence and religious fascism, we might have had faster-than-light space travel by now. Sure, that's all supposition, but we'd certainly be more advanced.

Who knows, this coulda been one of their least impressive technological devices. For all we know this was just a simple clock and the more advanced things they had would be even further from our comprehension.

I doesn't feel like looking at something from the ancient past... it feels like looking at a future we completely lost.
Just imagine what kind of technology we would have now, if we just kept advancing from the Antikythera Mechanism. It's the stuff of pure science fiction, but it could have been a Reality.. it's truly a shame we lost all of this for nearly 2000 years. All crushed by Politics, Religion, Dogma and lets face it.. human nature.
