Wonderstanding is a combination of the words "wonder" and "understanding." It describes the feeling people have after learning something amazing. It is not only a recognition of the beauty of something (such as the world), but the feeling of increased awe a person experiences after understanding the true complexity of it. It indicates in the person a reverence for curiosity/wonder as well as a respect for the acquisition of knowledge.
