English to Spanish: “For the Sake of the Prospect”: Experiencing the World from Above in the Late 18th Century Detailed field: History
Source text - English Many, if not the greatest number of the aerial voyages, though said to be purposely made for the improvement of science, were performed by persons absolutely incapable of accomplishing this purpose; and who, in reality, had either pecuniary profit alone in view, or were stimulated to go up with a balloon, for the sake of the prospect, and the vanity of adding their names to the list of aerial adventurers.
Translation - Spanish Muchos, por no decir la mayoría de los viajes aéreos, aunque se supone que fueron creados a propósito para el mejoramiento de la ciencia, fueron realizados por personas totalmente incapaces de lograr este propósito; y quienes en realidad ya sea por razones únicamente monetarias, o motivados por subirse a un globo por el bien de la prospección y la vanidad de añadir sus nombres a las listas de los exploradores aéreos.
