Explanation:

One of the most important legacies of the Rennaissance in the culture of Europe was the fact that the Renaissance encouraged a spirit of exploration and curiosity. This is part of the reason why art and science made such progress. This curiosity also pushed explorers to wonder what was out there, in the lands that had not yet been explored. This feeling would prove extremely important in the exploration of the Americas.
