Chemical bonds account for the association of atoms into molecules, while the overlapping of soliton tails give rise to soliton molecules. A basic question remains elusive: how a soliton molecule is formed from noises? In article number 1800009 , Junsong Peng and Heping Zeng successfully capture the fast evolution from noises to a soliton molecule by using the time‐stretch technique.
