“To many of us now, computers, silicon chips, data processing, cybernetics, and all the other innovations of the dawning high technology age are as mystifying as the workings of the combustion engine must have been when that first Model T rattled down Main Street, U.S.A. But as surely as America's pioneer spirit made us the industrial giant of the 20th century, the same pioneer spirit today is opening up on another vast front of opportunity, the frontier of high technology.” FirstsHas BeensMadeAgeTodayAmericaSpiritOpportunityTechnologyStreetsCenturyFrontsComputerModelsInnovationOpeningDataGiantsEngines20th CenturyChipsFrontiersPioneersProcessingSiliconOpening UpCyberneticsMain StreetCombustionHigh TechnologyPioneer SpiritModel T Author:Ronald Reagan

“I see all this talk about jobs going overseas as a symptom of the absence of innovation. And the absence of innovation is a symptom of there being no major national priority to advance a frontier.” JobsMajorsInnovationAbsencePrioritiesSymptomsFrontiers Author:Neil deGrasse Tyson
“When you advance a frontier and you do tomorrow what's never been done today, you have to innovate to make that happen. You become an innovation culture. When I grew up, every time I turned around it was, "Oh, here's the longest bridge or the deepest tunnel or the fastest airplane." And I originally thought that was just kind of like a pissing contest with men with too much testosterone. And then I realized that to make the tallest building you have to innovate. To make the fastest train you have to design the train in a way that it's never been designed before.” MenWayKindDoneHappensTodayCultureToo MuchDesignBuildingGrewTomorrowGrew UpInnovationTrainI RealizedBridgesAirplaneContestsFrontiersTunnelsTestosterone Author:Neil deGrasse Tyson

“What you end up seeing when you look at history is that people who have been good at pushing the boundaries of possibility, and exploring those frontiers of good ideas and innovations, have rarely done it in moments of great inspiration.
