Explorers on the Moon
(Book)

Translation of: On a marché sur la lune.

Having journeyed everywhere from America to the Congo to Tibet, Tintin blasts into outer space. Together with his faithful pooch, Snowy, the spunky boy reporter has joined an expedition "based at the Sprodj Atomic Center, high in the Zmyhlpathian Mountains, in the kingdom of Syldavia." Following a perfect lift-off, the myriad misadventures begin, as the ubiquitous "certified detectives," Thomson and Thompson, are discovered on board--inadvertent stowaways who threaten to monopolize the ship's precious oxygen supply. All's well that lands well, however, as Tintin and his colleagues return safely.
