Explanation Conducive To Books Destination Moon (Tintin #16)

First written in 1953, 15 years before the first real moon landing in 1969!
I like these books because of their nostalgia value, good old-fashioned values of heroism, adventure good vs. evil. . I first got hold of copies of 'Destination Moon ' and 'Explorers on the Moon' when I was ten, and I was fascinated by the world which they opened up.
Tintin and Captain Haddock fly to the uranium-rich Balkan State of Syldavia, to work with Professor Calculus on his project to send a rocket to the moon, using the mountains of Syldavia as a base. You learn a lot about the fantasyland of Syldavia, and about the unusual perception of the world of his time, by the author, Herge.
This work is amazing in its futuristic scope. The super-modern (for when it was written in1953) Sprodj Atomic Research Center, and the details of the rocket where quite an amazing concept when the book was first published, 16 years before the first real moon landing by Neil Armstrong in 1969.
It is full of adventure, such as when Tintin is wounded while surprising villains at the ventilator grid in the picturesque Syldavian Mountains; and much humour such as escapades with Captain
Haddock's pipe and Professor Calculus' hearing aid , and the famous scene of an enraged Professor Calculus `acting the goat'.
It is a great adventure for all ages, a wonderful album to have.

But the story continues in the next book...Maria Carmo,Lisbon, 18 January 2015.

In honor of the first moon landing that happened on this day in 1969, I'm reviewing Destination Moon by Georges Remi Herge. It was first written 19 years before the landing and translated a decade before.Destination Moon starts where Land of Black Gold ends. Tintin is home but is soon sent to Syldavia to witness a test flight of a moon rocket that will go around to the darkside of the Moon and photograph it.Destination Moon is better paced than Land of Black Gold, probably because it's not

Part 16 of my (actually happening!) big re-read of the whole Tintin-canon after decades ...I had read this one before, and whilst I can now appreciate it more due to the infos provided in the excellent 'The Complete Companion' by Michael Farr, I can also see the weaknesses - mostly the pacing and the balance between drama and comedy. Within the comedy I find it increasingly annoying that some jokes are ridden until they're raw, examples would be Haddock and the door or Haddock and the hole in

There are no female characters in this comic.

Herge is loyal to his habit of inspiring real cases in his stories again. The computer located at the Space Center was built on the UNIVAC I computer (the world's first civilian computer). Even the missile designed by Herge in his book was based on the Rocket V-2 designed by German scientists during the Second World War.But perhaps one of the coolest points of this story is the cover of its book. On this photo, we see Haddock, Calculus, Tintin, and Milo riding on the jeep, and Calculus is

A Swedish friend who speaks fluent French and is seriously into B.D. told me that this book was first to introduce the verb alunir (touch down on the Moon), formed by analogy with the verb aterrir (touch down). Then when the Apollo 11 astronauts did it in real life, French TV actually used Hergé's word! He was still alive then, and must have felt very proud...
