About this deal

This book by astronaut Tim Peake and writer Steve Cole is brilliant in concept but slightly patchy in execution. Please list any fees and grants from, employment by, consultancy for, shared ownership in or any close relationship with, at any time over the preceding 36 months, any organisation whose interests may be affected by the publication of the response. Please also list any non-financial associations or interests (personal, professional, political, institutional, religious or other) that a reasonable reader would want to know about in relation to the submitted work. This pertains to all the authors of the piece, their spouses or partners. 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. 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. 😮😮 A Modified Bubble Breakage and Coalescence Model Accounting the Effect of Bubble-Induced Turbulence for CFD-PBM Modelling of Bubble Column Bubbly Flows.

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? 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.

Einstein –the spoilsport – proved that nothing can travel faster than the speed of light in a vacuum, which is about 186,282 miles per second. I’ll be honest. The idea of writing science fiction with an actual astronaut –and a really cool one like Tim Peake! – was incredibly exciting, but it did worry me a bit. After all, astronauts deal with science fact –the realities of space travel. But in fact, Tim is full of ideas for making the seemingly impossible possible. This exhilarating futuristic adventure, the first in a trilogy, is a fast-paced, thrilling read, perfect for gamers and sci-fi fans. 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. Analysis and modelling of Reynolds stresses in turbulent bubbly up-flows from direct numerical simulations.

Swarm is ESA's first constellation mission for Earth Observation (EO). The mission consists of three identical satellites named Alpha, Bravo, and Charlie (A, B and C); which were launched on 22 November 2013 into a near-polar orbit. When Danny is kidnapped by a driverless taxi, and finds out his cousin has never heard of Adi, he finally realises something is very wrong. 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?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.
