But written words have always been a powerful medium of communication and a source of learning.

History's Secret 歷史奇案
Sixty years ago, a shiny metal object fell from the sky in New Mexico and changed the city of Roswell forever. This once peaceful area is now a must-see tourist destination for all UFO lovers. This month, National Geographic Channel looks at Roswell and other great mysteries on History's Secret.
六十年前，一個閃亮的金屬物品從天而降，掉在新墨西哥州，也永遠改變了羅斯威爾市。這個一度寧靜的地區現在成了所有幽浮愛好者必訪的觀光勝地。本月份，國家地理頻道《歷史奇案》，將一探羅斯威爾及其它重大的神秘事件。
Adolf Hitler caused millions of deaths and led an army that destroyed Europe. As the war was ending in 1945, Hitler and his bride killed themselves. Is that true? Some people believe that he faked his own death and ran off to Argentina. If so, did Hitler create a new army that wants to take over Europe again?
The Boston Strangler was the first serial killer in American history. Albert Desalvo admitted to the murders. He knew many details that only the murderer could have known. However, there was one huge problem. There was no evidence to prove Desalvo did it. Actually, the investigation showed that Desalvo was probably innocent. Find out more on National Geographic Channel's History's Secret.

波士頓殺人魔是美國歷史上第一位連續殺人狂。亞伯‧迪沙佛承認他犯下謀殺罪。他知道許多只有兇手才可能知道的細節。不過卻有一個大問題。並沒有證據證明人是迪沙佛殺的。事實上，調查顯示迪沙佛很可能是清白的。請觀賞國家地理頻道《歷史奇案》，以瞭解更多故事。
