George and the Blue Moon

Written by Stephen Hawking and Lucy Hawking

Narrated by Roy McMillan and Sophie Aldred

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…

Stephen Hawking

STEPHEN W. HAWKING (Oxford, 1942 - Cambridge, 2018) ocupava la càtedra Lucasiana de Matemàtiques que en altres temps va ocupar Newton a la Universitat de Cambridge. Reconegut universalment com un dels més grans físics teòrics del món, el professor Hawking ha escrit, tot i les seves enormes limitacions físiques, dotzenes d'articles que signifiquen en conjunt una aportació a la ciència que encara no som capaços d'avaluar adequadament. A les seves primeres obres de divulgació, Història del temps. Del big bang als forats negres (Columna, 2002) i L'Univers en una closca de nou (Columna, 2002), s'hi afegeix ara aquesta antologia que va camí de convertir-se en un text canònic de la ciència.
