In the Asteroids an English team has been mapping the asteroid belt for several years. Their goal is to know where every asteroid will be for the next 100 years. Except, they can no longer find the asteroids they have already mapped. They are no place to be found in their calculated error window. They need more computing power than there is in the UK.
Dr. CT writes on her cheerios' box where she thinks the asteroids are going. Sir Clive finds more computing power in Area 51 in the USA. CT finally tells but not quite all she knows. Yes, Jupiter has for the last two years been eating all the asteroids as it passes close by.
A team is formed in the USA to discover what is occurring.
A Euro3 space probe is the only eyes they have on the back side of Jupiter. The probe and the supercomputer are saying something about Jupiter which no one can understand.
Is it the second note CT wrote on her Cheerios box's lid that will tell all? What need does the team have for a deep earth researcher and his shock wave theories as they relate to the sun's fusion process?
Does anyone understand what is about to happen?
In The Cube, Fenwick sells cars and goes to school at night. An old man stumbles into the lot looking for lorries. Fenwick sees how much he has to spend. Then his attractive female assistant arrives to look over the lorries. Finally, two lorries are sold. Fenwick agrees to drive some students out to the Stonehenge dig site.
Several days later he gets off work to drive a bus and lorries to the dig. He can't afford to quit the car lot job. He and Sabrina need the job to live.
A mistake in setting the lines results in the dig finding a strange cube of metal, one-foot square. Fenwick is schooling in metals, and he helps dig it up and uses both lorries to get out of the hole. It goes to a research firm to discover what it is. It weights over 5-ton, and no one can explain it,
A physicist and geologist cannot explain anything about it or when it was placed at Stonehenge. The last attempt to discover what it is, uses a new laser beam with no effect. One thing they might know is that it a collector of radiation.
Fenwick bets Miss Finnimore he can find the other cubes. She bets fish and chips, then a home cooked fish meal, and lastly a T&T session with all three of them, Fenwick, Miss Finnimore and Sabrina.
When ask how he did it, "The cubes are in a reverse Fibonacci sequence."
Miss Finnimore cooks the meal and is not prepared when Sabrina half saunters, half parades into the kitchen with not a stich on.
What is to become of the cube or for that matter Miss Finnmore?
In the Ciphers and Ciphers at the beginning start of time, an explosion occurred and eons later the light travels until it enters a small system with four bodies. It is so bright it upsets nature on the second body.
