Five hundred years ago, on September 6, 1522, the battered Victoria carrying 21 starving men, limped into Sanlúcar de Barrameda, Spain.

With that, for the first time in history, people had journeyed around the world. Like the first controlled atomic reaction on December 2, 1942 or the first moon landing on July 20, 1969, these milestones of human achievement warrant our understanding.
