Editorial Review: Product Description: Tintin, the intrepid reporter; his naughty dog, Snowy; Captain Haddock; absentminded Professor Calculus; and bumbling sleuths Thomson and Thompson take off on a rocket bound for the moon, in a zany pop-up adventure. Amazon.com Review: Concluding the journey that began in Destination Moon, Tintin, Captain Haddock, and Professor Calculus are on their way to the moon, but unforeseen circumstances--innocent and otherwise--threaten the best-laid plans. Ever since it was first published in 1953, this technologically fascinating tale has probably been many kids' first glimpse of the mechanics involved in space travel, but the plot is as riveting as anything Herge ever wrote. --David Horiuchi Average Rating:
![]() Rating: - Childlike magicI saw this book as a child, and it ignited a strong interest in science and travel. It looks as fascinating now!

It surveyed knowledge of astronomy(which is always interesting), and then put on top of that a great mystery and awsome characters! You can't have a great Tintin story without Captain Haddock, Tintin, Proffesor Calculous, T&T, Snowy, and even Wolf make the story great. Herge really knows how to write! Rating: - Futuristic animated adventureThis science fictional comic , written in 1954 , 14 years before the first actual moon landing , fails to disappoint , after the precedent set by its prequel , 'Destination Moon'. This adventure sees Tintin and friends successfully go to the moon and back , defeating such problems as a rapidly depleting oxygen source and villains who have followed them into space . I read it when I was ten and it led me to become interested in space. I remember sitting on top of the roof of my home ...

And because it was a good adventure. It was good because it had a very good theme about the moon. Browse for similar items by category:
