The cover picture shows spectroscopic methods to characterize mobile protons in a proton‐conductive porous metal–organic frameworks with a regular crystalline structure. The long range ordering of host materials facilitates to uncover the molecular mechanism of the charged proton species formation and migration. As we use optical and radio‐frequency instruments to probe the night sky secrets, we combine different types of molecular spectroscopies to shed light on the mysteries of the proton transfer in solids.
