Spanish term or phrase: Cada vez ganará nuevas zonas a lo que hoy parece inexplicable
This is from a quote from Gregorio Marañón:
La ciencia, a pesar de sus progresos increíbles, no puede ni podrá nunca explicarlo todo. Cada vez ganará nuevas zonas a lo que hoy parece inexplicable. Pero las fronteras del saber, por muy lejos que se eleven, tendrán siempre delante un infinito mundo de misterio, lagunas e inexactitudes y estas sólo se pueden disimular con amor.

Gregorio Marañón (1887-1960)

What is an eloquent way to say this in English.
Thanks for your help.
