The aeroplane has unveiled for us the true face of the earth

Summary

This quote suggests that the invention of the aeroplane has brought about a profound shift in how we perceive the world. Before airplanes were invented, our understanding of the Earth was limited to what we could see and explore on the ground. However, airplanes have allowed us to view the planet from a new perspective - from above - revealing its vastness, beauty, and interconnectedness. The quote implies that the aerial view provided by airplanes has given us a more comprehensive understanding of the true face of the Earth.
