Features: The purpose of "Getting Closer to Science" is "promoting the spirit of science; spreading scientific thinking; advocating scientific methods; disseminating scientific knowledge." What is science? Different people may have different interpretations. Here, the science we emphasize is not limited to superconductivity, nanotechnology, genetics, and space exploration. From the smallest aspects of daily life, such as food, clothing, housing, and transportation, to the vast outer space, the depths of the Earth, millions of years ago, and millions of years in the future, science is present everywhere. It can be said that science is everywhere in our lives, constantly influencing our daily experiences and shaping our way of thinking. Exploring China's lost civilizations and uncovering historical mysteries. This book is part of the "Getting Closer to Science" popular science series. Ancient house mysteries, searching for "Tai Chi Zhang Sanfeng," China's Jurassic Park, the mystery of the Jingshan statue—too many questions, too much curiosity. Humanity needs more exploration, and humanity needs to solve more mysteries. Open this book and let us embark on a journey of exploring unsolved mysteries. Compared to other news and entertainment programs, science programs face greater challenges in attracting viewers. They not only need to explain the surface phenomena of scientific facts but also require rigorous scientific evidence and logical reasoning. Transforming profound scientific facts filled with principles and logical relationships into lively, easy-to-understand, and audience-favorite TV programs is indeed not an easy task. Complicated storylines, suspenseful narration, and compelling character fates all become key factors in boosting ratings. For science programs, simply telling stories is not enough. The scientific principles and analyses of unsolved mysteries are the essential features that distinguish them from other programs. "Getting Closer to Science" is positioned as a life-based story program, offering scientific explanations for hot topics and mysteries. How to present scientific principles in a way that attracts viewers is a challenge faced by creators. The flexible use of props in popular science programs is an indispensable tool in solving this challenge. This book includes topics such as: "The Transforming Magic Knife," "Flying Eagle on Earth," "Turning Flies into Gold," "Walking on Rooftops," "Mysteries of Ancient Houses," "Fighting with Bare Hands," "China's Jurassic Park," "The White-Haired Demon Head," "Close Encounters with Golden Snub-Nosed Monkeys," and "The Mystery of the Jingshan Statue."
