This question still pervades our existence... will we ever know the TRUE meaning of reality?

So, there is this one question which has pretty much always been on my mind... well, it is not a single question in particular. For that, I don't even think it can be considered a question per say. Instead, it is a "form" of how you ask a question. Let's take this question for instance. For example, you might be wondering... Why is the earth round? Well, that is because of the effect of gravity. Alright, so... why is there gravity? And whatever the answer you discover is, then ask the same kind of question again, starting with the word "why?" And once you keep adding this single word to each upcoming question, you may soon realize something quite "peculiar". What happens is that, just about any kind of question that might have started out with why, can then go through what is seems like an infinite amount of iterations, just as a highly complex fractal has a numerous amount of iterations in the form of "branching" figures. Although I've tried to write that this kind of a question regards the universe, the truth is, in fact, that this dilemma may also involve common, everyday questions. So, ...
Let's take another question, for instance: "Why is something dark?" (because it absorbs light)
"Why does this "something" absorb light?" (because the photons of light "cannot escape it's grasp")
"Why is it, then, that the photons are trapped?" Some kind of a physical scientist might very well answer such an in-depth question. However, I think that, at this point, most of us or, (at least some of us) would figure out... that for us, we find it gets ever more difficult to try and delve deeper into the why's? of life So, "why are photons trapped?" Well, regardless of the answer, you could effectively ask literally anyone in the world a finite amount of iterations of this question, just by simply inserting the word "Why?" in the beginning of the sentence. And "Walla!" They're totally speechless.
Let's reiterate what I'm trying to get across here:
Step 1. Take an answer to a "why?" question
Step 2. Ask "why"? again.
Step 3. Whatever the answer is, ask "why?" again. Each time you do this, though, you want to make sure that you don't keep repeating the same question over and over again. Instead, make up the new question, starting with the word "why", by taking (or using) the answer from the last question that you have b. Basically, what you are trying to do is to take the last answer and form it into a new question.
And again, if we ask someone this, and remain persistent enough (And sometimes, we must remain patient, depending on whom you might be asking at that time) there comes a point where we only know so much. So this is true, not only for each and every question that begins with "why?", but also for just about each and every question that begins with "how?" Who knows, that may even hold true for other forms of questions. In summary, I think what is happening here in our everyday world (and life) is that we don't think about many things often. However, for each and every answer that someone has come about with, and can come about with, there will always be another question that could be sprung about from that answer. IT should be no wonder then, why, in many cases, we create new question out of existing answers. In fact, if you were to really think about this one, you would find out that this reasoning holds true, not just for answers... it also holds true that for each QUESTION that we may ever ask, there will be another question that comes with it, whether this other question would be a question which we want to or need to answer (whether the question will even be considered). There is a question that will always exist... as long as one either comes up with a new answer...
... OR question!
