Inhaltsangabe

‘If they existed, they would be here’ ENRICO FERMI. In the second volume in Stephen Baxter’s epic Manifold Series Reid Malenfant inhabits the universe Malenfant kick-started in TIME (‘science fiction at its best’ FHM) – and ‘they’ are here.

’If they existed, they would be here’ – this is the Fermi paradox concerning the existence of extrarrestrials. Once it confirmed Malenfant’s opinion that humanity was alone in the universe. But when Nemoto, a Japanese researcher on the Moon, discovers evidence of extraterrestrial intelligence in the solar system, the same paradox provokes both Malenfant and Nemoto to question why now? Because, suddenly, there are signs of intelligent life in deep space in all directions. Deeper layers of Fermi’s paradox unravel as robot-like aliens, the Gaijin, seem to be e-mailing themselves from star to star, and wherever telescopes point, far away, other alien races are destroying worlds…

In the face of this onslaught from the stars, Malenfant sets out alone in a salvaged antique spacecraft to make contact with the Gaijin. In response the Gaijin come to Earth – but not to save mankind. Curious but aloof, incomprehensible, the Gaijin seem unhappy with what they find here and set about recreating from existing DNA some of the marvels of prehistory, including those hominids driven to extinction by man.

As other aliens approach in a blaze of destruction there is no comfort in recalling Nemoto’s certainty that this has all happened before, over and over. But in the soul of Malenfant, in the dreams of the new Neandertals, and in Nemoto’s obsessive loathing of all aliens there are glimmers of hope that the cycle can be broken…

Von der hinteren Coverseite

In the second volume of Stephen Baxter's epic Manifold series Reid Malenfant inhabits the universe kick-started in Time ('Time is pacy, visionary, extravagantly imagined' 'THE TIMES'). In 'Space' life is everywhere!

'If they existed, they would be here' – this is the Fermi paradox concerning the existence of extraterrestrials. Once it confirmed Malenfant's opinion that humanity was alone in the universe. But when Nemoto, a Japanese researcher on the Moon, discovers evidence of extraterrestrial intelligence in the solar system, the same paradox provokes both Malenfant and Nemoto to question why now? Because, suddenly , there are signs of intelligent life in deep space in all directions. Deeper layers of Fermi's paradox unravel as robot-like aliens, the Gaijin, seem to be e-mailing themselves from star to star, and wherever telescopes point, far away, other alien races are destroying worlds.

In the face of this onslaught from the stars, Malenfant sets out alone in a salvaged antique spacecraft to make contact with the Gaijin. In response the Gaijin come to Earth in their beautiful silver flower-ships – but not to save mankind. They trawl through the archives of human culture for their own culture for their own mysterious reasons. In their wake, recreated marvels of prehistoric life once more roam the Earth, including those hominids driven to extinction by man. But the Gaijin have more questions than answers.

As other aliens approach in a blaze of destruction there is no comfort in recalling Nemoto's certainty that this has all happened before, over and over. But in the soul of Malenfant, in the dreams of the new Neanderthal's and in Nemoto's obsessive loathing of all aliens there are glimmers of hope that the cycle can be broken.

Hardback. Zustand: Acceptable. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Good. First. Outline:- The Japanese are in space the US has turned inward - flights into space have become dreams of old men and women dreams of an age of sublimated warfare which have left behind only images of charmingly antique rocket craft. Malenfant in this universe is not the reckless adventurer of TIME. He has stayed on Earth to invest in research into what he regards as long-term thinking: SETI using gravitational lensing to hunt for planets and Eetie signals exploring the venerable Fermi paradox `If they existed they would be here`. When Nemoto a Japanese researcher on the Moon discovers evidence of the activity of extraterrestrial intelligences in the solar system she is unable to reconcile her observations with the accepted paradigm. Instead of publishing her findings she seeks Malenfant`s opinion: he travels to the Moon ostensibly to lecture on SETI in fact to answer Nemoto`s question: WHY NOW? Nemoto and Malenfant share the certainty that the resources of all nations on Earth are needed to respond to this and this was her reason for summoning Malenfant. But deeper layers of Fermi`s paradox unravel against a backdrop of violently mixed reactions to the revelation that alien beings dubbed the Gaijin also inhabit the solar system. It`s like the Gaijin are e-mailing themselves from star to star and are not really there at all - though others might be. In this confusion Malenfant disappears in space and Nemoto becomes a recluse in a Lunar cave - both are hatching plans to confront a threat only they can bring themselves to fully believe in.-> the publisher of this HARDBACK book is HarperCollins The date of this copy is 2000 booksalvation have grade it as Acceptable and it will be shipped from our UK warehouse This book is from the Series.
