Who is "Icarus"?
Icarus is a character from Greek mythology known for his ill-fated flight. According to the myth, Icarus and his father, Daedalus, escaped from imprisonment using wings made of feathers and wax. Despite warnings from his father not to fly too close to the sun, Icarus became overconfident and flew higher. The heat from the sun melted the wax holding his wings together, causing him to fall into the sea and drown. His story symbolizes the dangers of overambition and the consequences of ignoring wise advice.
