Swarm Rising: Swarm Enemy by Tim Peake, Steve Cole - Waterstones

But you don’t need to be a scientist to love this book; it’s an absorbing, exciting adventure based on an ingenious concept, thoughtfully planned and with a strong environmental message. But what exactly is the ‘help’ the secretive Swarm is offering? Can Danny and his friend Jamila help Adi stop the Swarm Agents and give humanity a second chance? In 1974, a message was sent into outer space. Its intention was to let any lifeforms out there know that they were not alone; that Earth was inhabited by humans and that those humans were very clever indeed. Nobody really expected the message to be heard. And they certainly didn’t expect aliens to come looking for us. The Electrical Field Instrument consists of two components: the Langmuir Probe (LP) and the Thermal Ion Imager (TII). The probes provide measurements of the electron density, electron temperature and spacecraft potential. The TII characterises the ion drift and velocity in high resolution to determine the electric field around Earth. Adi is a scout for the aliens, who gave up on their physical form millions of years ago. They exist only in “dataswarm” and are an intelligent hive mind.

Author Steve Cole wrote Swarm Rising with astronaut Tim Peake about two teens who end up in space - but what's it really like up in the stars? Adi - Alien Digital Intelligence in the form of a girl - can bend the laws of physics and control digital data, but as a digital being she wants to know what it's like to be human. Which is where Danny comes in. Danny Munday and his best friend Jamila, who lives next door, love gaming. Danny's parents are both into physics and astronomy but have separated because they couldn't stop fighting. Danny lives with his mother, who is so into her job that Danny doesn't get much attention, even if she's at home. It is rare to find a middle grade sci-fi piece of this complexity though, and budding sci-fi fans will be fascinated by this. It reminds me of Prey by Michael Crichton, about hostile “humans” formed by a swarm of nano bots. 😮😮

This book by astronaut Tim Peake and writer Steve Cole is brilliant in concept but slightly patchy in execution. From the most mundane town in the universe to the chaos and exhilaration of battles in outer space and the trauma of almost being eaten by a drooling alien, this surreal, sci-fi adventure will take you on the ride of your life. In March 2018, the CASSIOPE/ e-POP mission was formally integrated into the Swarm constellation as the fourth element (Swarm-E) under ESA's Earthnet Third Party Mission Programme. The e-POP payload operations are currently focused on maximising the Swarm/e-POP scientific outcome, and there is an ongoing joint effort to develop new and better-calibrated products based on e-POP data. Scale separation and dependence of entrainment bubble-size distribution in free-surface turbulence. The Absolute Scalar Magnetometer (ASM) measures the strength of the magnetic field also used to a great accuracy. It provides scalar measurements of the magnetic field to calibrate the onboard Vector Field Magnetometer. The ASM is an absolute instrument, i.e. it is not subject to changes of its intrinsic parameters over time.Adi – Alien Digital Intelligence in the form of a girl – can bend the laws of physics and control digital data, but as a digital being she wants to know what it’s like to be human. Which is where Danny comes in. In 1974, scientists sent an interstellar message from Arecibo, Puerto Rico to a star system 25,000 light years away. It contained basic information about humanity and Earth. The Accelerometer measures the satellite’s non-gravitational acceleration in its respective orbit. The instrument helps scientists to study factors that cause non-gravitational accelerations such as air drag, winds, Earth albedo, and direct solar radiation pressure on the spacecraft. For fans of Alex Rider, Young Bond and Cherub, this exciting action-adventure is the first children’s book f rom astronaut Tim Peake and bestselling author Steve Cole, and is based on space-age science and technology.

These FRBs are how ADI, short for Alien Digital Intelligence, invades Danny’s digital life through the thumb drive into Mum’s laptop, the wifi system and then into his phone. Imagine that? Swarm is dedicated to creating a highly detailed survey of Earth's geomagnetic field and its temporal evolution as well as the electric field in the atmosphere, by using a satellite constellation that carries sophisticated magnetometers and other instruments.

Of course, Captain Kirk and Doctor Who never worried much about this. The sci-fi idea of hopping across galaxies in the blink of an eye is fun, but it doesn't play nicely with the laws of physics. There are ISSUES, people.As Adi gets to know Danny, and learns to appreciate simple pleasures in life, the dataswarm decides that the best way to save this ravaged earth, is to “advance” all seven billion of the humans into a deep, dark, seething mass of data.
