The series premiered on 15 January 2023.

Outline

In 2007, a mysterious woman brings the results from a particle accelerator experiment to an elderly Prof. Munphy, before the experiment is even carried out. Later, he commits suicide. Wang Miao, a leading figure in nanotechnology research, is recruited by Shi Qiang to help infiltrate The Frontiers of Science – a group of elite theoretical physicists, many of whom have recently committed apparent suicides. The phrase “physics doesn’t exist anymore” seems to be something the deaths have in common, and is also present in the suicide note of Prof. Yang Dong, for whom Wang Miao holds affection after having met and photographed her during one of her experiments at the particle accelerator.

In 1979, Ye Wenjie responds to a signal received by the Red Coast antenna on Radar Peak, inviting her correspondent to take Earth, as its population cannot solve its own problems.
