“我們可以生活在一個去化石燃料的世界中嗎？”“意識存在于何處？”“為什么時間似乎只朝一個方向流動？”……上海交通大學攜手《科學》雜志共同發(fā)布了125個全世界最受關注的科學問題。新版125個科學問題中，個別問題是持續(xù)關注上版問題中至今尚未解決的重大科學難題，如“宇宙是由什么構成的”“我們可以阻止自己衰老嗎”。也有具有挑戰(zhàn)性的全球共性問題，如“我們可以阻止全球氣候變化嗎”“能量存儲的未來是怎樣的”“我們有可能在另一個星球上長期居住嗎”；還有具有較強時代特征的前沿科技問題，如“為什么生命需要手性”“量子人工智能可以模仿人腦嗎”“DNA可以廣泛用作信息存儲介質嗎”“我們如何在火星上開發(fā)制造系統(tǒng)”……1.
