What's a trillion times brighter than the Sun? Meet the High Energy Photon Source (HEPS) in Beijing. This incredible light source allows scientists to peer into the microscopic structures of matter—atoms, electrons, and beyond. With this ultra-bright beam, scientists can study the microstructure and evolution of materials with unprecedented detail. And guess what? It's not just for China—HEPS is open to scientists from around the globe!
