Speaking from Eureka

The ancients said, "Writing is to convey the way", but don't TV series carry many interesting content?

The protagonist of Eureka is a group of scientists. From this, we can guess some American scientific research from the TV series. Taking a step back, it is also the situation of American scientists and scientific research in the eyes of American TV screenwriters.

Scientific research is led by projects. From Eureka, we can clearly see that Global Dynamics must actively ask for money from Congress and the Ministry of Defense. Funding is one of the indispensable elements of scientific research today. The age of doing research behind closed doors has passed. And to make good use of funds, it is also based on the project. It's not that you won a Nobel Prize and you will be a great person for life, but you have to see the real guy in the project.

In episode 5, when the bioscientist was dismissed from his contract and kicked out of Eureka, the supervisor did not consider his face. Researchers are also human, so they may be fired. When you can't use scientific research, you should leave that position.

In the sixth episode, Carter finally drove his car and slammed into it in episode 6, causing the dead light to deviate from its orbit. It didn't hit the mirror on the moon, and it didn't reflect and hit a certain earth country.
A super powerful weapon, the firing command cannot be cancelled, and even its maker is powerless, but in the end Carter used a simple and ordinary method to resolve the crisis. Therefore, "clumsy" in science does not mean useless. When facing any problem, we must consider the whole thing. As long as the needs are met, what can't we use ordinary methods?

The FFT algorithm was selected as the top ten classic algorithm at the beginning of the 21st century, and its kernel is extremely simple and clear. Simplicity does not hinder its success.
