George's pet pig breaks through the fence into the garden next door - introducing him to his new neighbours: the scientist, Eric, his daughter, Annie, and a super-intelligent computer called Cosmos. And from that moment George's life will never be the same again, for Cosmos can open a portal to any point in outer space . . .
Written by science educator Lucy Hawking and her father - the most famous scientist in the world - and illustrated by Garry Parsons, George's Secret Key to the Universe will take you on a rollercoaster ride through space to discover the mysteries of our universe.
'Welcome,' said Cosmos,
'to the Universe!'
When George's pet pig breaks through the fence into the garden next door, George meets his new neighbours- Annie and her scientist father, Eric- and discovers a secret key that will take him on a rollercoaster ride into outer space!
For Eric has the world's most super-intelligent (and stroppy) computer, Cosmos, who can whisk George and his friends off to any point in the Universe. Soon they are hurtling past planets, through a dangerous asteroid storm to the very edge of our solar system and beyond.
But someone else would like to get their hands on Cosmos - someone whose power-hungry plans will lead Eric and George to a black hole and sure-fire deep space danger...
