The Value of Science
What is the value of the science I had long devoted myself to—the thing I had loved— when I saw what terrible things it could do?
The first way in which science is of value is familiar to everyone: scientific knowledge enables us to do and make all kinds of things. Of course, if we make good things, it is not only to the credit of science; it is also to the credit of the moral choice which led us to good work. Scientific knowledge is an enabling power to do either good or bad—but it does not carry instructions on how to apply it. Such power has obvious value— even though the power may be negated by what one does with it.
Another value of science is the intellectual enjoyment it can provide us with. When we look at any question deeply enough, we feel the excitement and mystery coming to us again and again. With more knowledge comes a deeper, more wonderful mystery, inspiring one to look deeper still. Never concerned that the answer may let us down, with pleasure and confidence we turn over each new stone to find unimagined strangeness leading on to more wonderful questions and mysteries.
I would now like to turn to a third value that science has. The scientist has a lot of experience with ignorance and doubt and uncertainty, and this experience is of very great importance. When he has an idea as to what the result is, he is uncertain. And when he is pretty sure of what the result is going to be, he is still in some doubt.
Now, we scientists take it for granted that it is perfectly possible to live and not know. But our freedom to doubt was born out of a deep and strong struggle against authority in the early days of science. In order to progress, we must not forget the importance of this struggle; we must recognize our ignorance and leave room for doubt. Permit us to question—to doubt—to not be sure.
It is our responsibility as scientists, knowing the great progress that is the fruit of freedom of thought, to declare the value of this freedom; to teach how doubt is not to be feared but to be welcomed and discussed; and to demand this freedom as our duty to all coming generations.

Wang Daheng, the Father of
Chinese Optics(光学)
In 1949, the field of applied optical science didn’t exist in China. Understanding its importance for national strength, the Chinese government paid much attention to optical research.
Wang Daheng, a respected optical physicist, devoted his whole life to this cause. He kept watching on the development of China’s first piece of optical glass, first electronic microscope, first laser device, and first large-size optical measuring equipment, and helped to found the Chinese Academy of Engineering. He is called the Father of Chinese Optics.

As a teenager, Wang Daheng often followed his father to the observatory and became greatly interested in the apparatus(仪器)there. In 1936, he graduated from Tsinghua University with a degree in physics. Two years later, he won a government scholarship to study in England. After earning his master’s degree from Imperial College London in 1940, he began his doctoral studies in optical physics and technology.

In 1948, Wang gave up his established career and comfortable life in the West and returned to his motherland with the aim of empowering(增强某人的自主权) it through science and technology. At the time China did not have the capability to produce optical measuring equipment on its own. In 1951, Wang was instructed to found an institute of fine mechanics and was appointed its first president. Within less than two years, Wang and his team produced the first group of China-made optical glass. Over the following six years, they went on to develop the country’s first electronic microscope, first high- precision theodolite(经纬仪), first optical range finder, and five other optical devices, laying the foundation for China’s precise optical instrument industry. In 1961, they independently developed the ruby laser in China. In addition to scientific research, Wang advanced the study of optics in higher education.

Starting in the 1960s, Wang participated in the optical research related to the development of nuclear bombs, missiles, and man-made satellites. In 1970, China successfully launched the Dongfanghong-1 satellite, of which Wang was one of the designers. When the satellite returned to Earth, the devices they designed brought back clear images of our home planet as seen from outer space for the first time.
To close the technological gap between China and developed countries, Wang and three other scientists made the suggestion of drawing up a national hi-tech research and development plan in 1986, which led to the famous 863 Program.
In 1992, Wang and a group of other scientists called for the creation of the Chinese Academy of Engineering. In the following years, he won many honors from the state. He passed away in Beijing aged 96 on July 21, 2011 after living a full and fruitful life.

Science: Shaping Our World and the Scientists Behind It
Science has always been the driving force behind human progress. From the discovery of fire in prehistoric times to the mind-boggling advancements in artificial intelligence today, it has continuously transformed our lives.
In the medical field, science has worked miracles. Vaccines have eradicated or significantly reduced the spread of deadly diseases like smallpox. Antibiotics, another scientific marvel, have saved countless lives by fighting off bacterial infections. In the past, a simple cut could lead to life-threatening sepsis, but now, with proper medical treatment based on scientific research, such risks are greatly minimized.

When it comes to space exploration, science enables us to reach for the stars. The first moon landing in 1969 was a monumental achievement. Astronauts Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin took humanity’s first steps on the lunar surface, opening a new chapter in space exploration. Since then, space probes have been sent to study distant planets like Mars. These missions have not only expanded our knowledge of the universe but also inspired generations to pursue careers in science.

Behind every scientific breakthrough are dedicated scientists. Take Marie Curie, for example. She was the first woman to win a Nobel Prize and the only person to win Nobel Prizes in two different scientific fields (physics and chemistry). Her research on radioactivity was groundbreaking but also came at a great personal cost, as she was exposed to high levels of radiation, which ultimately led to her death. Another notable scientist is Thomas Edison. He held over 1,000 patents, and his invention of the practical electric light bulb revolutionized the world, banishing darkness and enabling people to be productive at night.

Scientists possess several key qualities. They are highly curious, always asking questions and seeking answers. Their patience allows them to endure long-term research, often facing numerous failures before achieving success. Creativity is also essential, as it helps them come up with innovative ideas and approaches to solve complex problems.
In conclusion, science, with the efforts of brilliant scientists, has made our world a better place. It will continue to play a crucial role in shaping our future, and we should encourage more young people to engage in scientific pursuits.
