The Forbidden City. also known as the Palace Museum, is long associated with images of century-old buildings and relics (文物). Now it is taking a surprising step into fashion. The Forbidden City isn’t so forbidden after all now. What has happened?

——The TV series Masters in the Forbidden City（《我在故宮修文物》） record the mysterious experts who work in the museum. Their job is to repair the relics within it. You may have imagined these workers to be old and boring, while they're actually quite young and interesting. Some are even in their 20s. They lead a peaceful career with great care, although it can sometimes be dull. The TV series are so popular that more and more college students are applying to work at the Palace Museum.

——The Palace Museum Cultural and Creative Store is the museum’s online store. In 2014, it started to offer daily items such as T-shirts and earphones with obvious cultural features. These products soon gained popularity on social media because they allowed people to wear a piece of history. In 2017, the online store launched a new product — a lipstick collection in six colors. The lipstick colors are quite attractive with their Chinese cultural meanings. They also have a high collection value.

——In November 2018, the TV programme New Products Released in the Palace Museum（《上新了故宫》）pushed people's interest on the palace to a new high. This program is helping the Palace Museum shaking off the image of being old-fashioned. Deng Lun and Zhou Yiwei act as the new product developers. They guide people around lots of the unopened areas in the palace to search for the inspiration (灵感). In this way, more fashion designs with a sense of history have come into being.

For Serena Aunon-Chancellor, joining the Young Astronauts Club was more than an after-school hobby, it was the very beginning of her journey to space!

Serena was born on April 9, 1976, in Indianapolis, Indiana, USA. When she was growing up in the 1980s, NASA launched space shuttles(发射航天飞机) many times a year. One day as she was watching a shuttle launch on TV, Serena’s father said, “You want to work for NASA? You need to be an engineer.” Serena’s father was an engineer himself. And he was right: half of all astronauts have studied engineering. From then on, Serena planned to be an engineer.

When she turned sixteen, Serena’s parents gave her an amazing gift—a weekly trip to Space Camp in Huntsville, Alabama.

In 2006, Serena worked as a flight surgeon(航空医师) at NASA, helping astronauts in the United States and Russia. She loved helping through medicine, but she still wanted to be an astronaut. Every year thousands of people apply to the astronaut training program and only ten to fifteen people are chosen. In 2009, Serena got the phone call she had been hoping for since she was a kid: She was chosen to be an astronaut!
