Picked up the Dutch version of Tintin in Schiphol airport. I know it from front-to-back in English, so it didn't surprise me that I could get through it.

Slightly better than Destination Moon (the previous volume), but still too much dopey slap-stick, excessive monologues that have characters spewing forth why things occurred, and not enough adventure. Nice art, though!

All the usual Tintin tropes, but in space. Lots of words in this one and I swear they seem smaller too. It was interesting to see how much of space travel they got wrong or chose to ignore. But a bunch of the flavor was right-ish. Not sure I was expecting stowaways. An actual tank rather than a moon rover. A nuclear powered spacecraft. Pretty readable though. 3.5 of 5.

Two words: Reaction mass.
That said, this and Destination Moon are what got me interested in rocketry. A most lovely re-visit.
