Everything we have heard so far plays off the fact that humanity knows next to nothing about the mysterious sphere that protects our City. Just what is the Traveler?
My question is, why haven't we tried to find answers? Last time I checked, we're a nosy race of human beings. We obviously have spacecraft, so what's keeping us from flying into the Traveler's interior? Shields? Automatic defenses? Some sort of repulsive magnetic field?
This question has been eating away at me for a while, so I wanted to see what you all think!

Maybe there is a forcefield that prevents people from coming near, so humans settled under it to have protection from the air, and guardians defend from the ground. It has also been stated that humans only just got back in the space flight game, so that may be part of the story.
