V etoj zhivoj i vesjoloj knige oni rasskazali o fantasticheski interesnykh predmetakh - chernykh dyrakh, kvazarakh, asteroidakh, galaktikakh i parallelnykh vselennykh - detjam. Avtory osobo podcherkivajut, chto khoteli "predstavit sovremennyj vzgljad na kosmologiju ot Bolshogo vzryva do nastojaschego vremeni bez kakoj by to ni bylo magii". Edinstvennyj volshebnyj geroj v knige - eto superkompjuter, kotoryj otkryvaet dver Dzhordzhu i ego druzjam vo Vselennuju.Eto istorija o kosmicheskikh prikljuchenijakh, v kotorye otpravljajutsja druzja, chtoby bolshe uznat o mire, v kotorom my zhivjom. Eto takzhe istorija o zakonakh fiziki, kotorye upravljajut etim mirom. No, krome vsego prochego, eto istorija ob odinokom malchike po imeni Dzhordzh i o tom, kak izmenilas ego zhizn s togo dnja, kogda on poznakomilsja so svoimi novymi sosedjami - Anni i Erikom. Anni bolshe vsego na svete ljubit balet, a ejo otets Erik, uchjonyj-kosmolog, bolshe vsego na svete ljubit kosmos. Eriku pomogaet superkompjuter po imeni... "Kosmos". Etot kompjuter nastolko moschnyj i nastolko umnyj, chto umeet risovat dveri, cherez kotorye mozhno popast v ljubuju tochku Vselennoj (konechno, nadev pri etom skafandr - ved tam, v otkrytom kosmose, strashno kholodno!). A poka Dzhordzh i ego druzja issledujut kosmicheskoe prostranstvo, "Kosmos" upravljaet poljotom... esli on na meste, konechno. No v ljuboj knizhke, dazhe v nauchno-prikljuchencheskoj, est zlye sily, kotorye... Vprochem, ne budem rasskazyvat sjuzhet zaranee, ved ochen skoro vy ego uznaete sami.Evropejskaja premera knigi sostojalas v sentjabre 2007 goda vo Frantsii i Velikobritanii.

George and Annie are off on another cosmic adventure inspired by the Mars Expedition in the fifth book of the George's Secret Key series from Stephen and Lucy Hawking. George and his best friend, Annie, have been selected as junior astronauts for a program that trains young people for a future trip to Mars. This is everything they've ever wanted--and now they get to be a part of up-to-the minute space discoveries and meet a bunch of new friends who are as fascinated by the universe as they are. But when they arrive at space camp, George and Annie quickly learn that strange things are happening--on Earth as well as up in the skies. Mysterious space missions are happening in secret, and the astronaut training they're undertaking gets scarier and scarier...

George and Annie are off on another cosmic adventure to figure out why strange things are happening on Earth in the fourth book of the George's Secret Key series from Stephen and Lucy Hawking. George and his best friend Annie haven't had any space adventures for a while and they're missing the excitement. But not for long, because seriously strange things have started happening. Banks are handing out free money, supermarkets aren't able to charge for their products so people are getting free food, and aircrafts are refusing to fly. It looks like the world's biggest and best computers have all been hacked. And no one knows why... It's up to George and Annie to travel further into space than ever before in order to find out what--or who--is behind it.
