Features: With the sound of the 21st century's bell, humanity has moved from the atomic age to the bit age. In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, a series of groundbreaking scientific discoveries such as electricity, atomic nuclei, radioactivity, and blackbody radiation gave rise to Planck's quantum theory, Einstein's theory of relativity, and the mass-energy equivalence formula, propelling humanity into the atomic age. Terms like X-ray imaging, nuclear power plants, nuclear submarines, and atomic bombs have become everyday vocabulary for ordinary people. After a brief period of amazement, people began to calmly enjoy atomic civilization and cautiously discuss atomic disasters. However, just as people were beginning to grasp the essence of the atomic revolution, another even more rapid revolution—the information revolution—arrived quietly.
