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 like food, clothing, housing, and transportation to the vastness of outer space, the depths of the Earth, billions of years ago, and billions of years in the future, science is omnipresent. It is everywhere in our lives, constantly influencing our daily experiences and shaping our way of thinking. Exploring China's lost civilizations, uncovering historical mysteries, and solving enigmas. This book is part of the "Getting Closer to Science" popular science series. Repairing fragments of civilization, cracking the mystery of the Tainai, revealing the disappearance of the Khitan people, decoding the mysteries of China's Bermuda, and deciphering the communication code of locusts—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 a much greater challenge in attracting viewers. They must not only explain the surface phenomena of scientific facts but also provide rigorous scientific evidence and logical reasoning. Transforming profound scientific facts filled with principles and logical relationships into lively, accessible, and audience-friendly television programs is indeed not an easy task. Complicated storylines, suspenseful narratives, 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 program that presents reasoning stories in daily life and scientifically analyzes 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 for solving this challenge. This book selects engaging and relatable content from CCTV's "Getting Closer to Science" program and compiles it into a book. It includes works such as "The Mystery of the Water Book," "Cracking the Mystery of the Tainai," and "Decoding the Mysteries of China's Bermuda."
