It's sort of like when Galileo invented -- or, didn't invent -- came to use a telescope and could see the heavens in a new way, or Leeuwenhoek became aware of the microscope -- or actually invented -- and could see biology in a new way.
这有点像伽利略发明的 -- 不是发明 -- 使用望远镜 能用一种新的方式看到天空， 或者莱文胡克开始了解微观世界 --- 发明了显微镜 --- 而能以新的方式审视生物学。
