1. Isn't it a lovely night?
Copy !req
2. Well, yes, it is a little hot.
Copy !req
3. Hmm... That's strange.
Copy !req
4. I've never noticed that star.
Copy !req
5. I smell a story here. Come on, Snowy.
Copy !req
6. Hello, observatory?
I'm calling about a...
Copy !req
7. No, it's impossible!
Copy !req
8. Hello? Hello?
Copy !req
9. They hung up.
Copy !req
10. Hello!
Copy !req
11. Judgment. A judgment, yea...
Copy !req
12. Excuse me...
Copy !req
13. A judgment! Woe!
Copy !req
14. Hello!
Copy !req
15. What? That must be the main telescope.
Copy !req
16. Wow!
Copy !req
17. No, it's impossible.
There must be a mistake.
Copy !req
18. Excuse me.
Copy !req
19. Excuse me.
Copy !req
20. Shhh!
Copy !req
21. The refraction of the fifth quadrant
is ten to the fifth power, following
Copy !req
22. a target across the cosine.
- The matrix?
Copy !req
23. Shhh!
Copy !req
24. B-b-but...
Copy !req
25. Hmmm... I wonder if...
Copy !req
26. Phew! I thought so.
Copy !req
27. It's okay! It was only a—
Copy !req
28. Sir, please...
Copy !req
29. Professor! You must have made a mistake.
Copy !req
30. I have not made a mistake.
Copy !req
31. My calculations are correct.
Copy !req
32. Oh, dear! Oh, dear!
Copy !req
33. - Is something wrong?
- Oh, dear! Oh, dear!
Copy !req
34. Sir?
Copy !req
35. Have a look.
Copy !req
36. What is it?
Copy !req
37. I, Decimus Phostle, have discovered
a gigantic mass of matter in fusion.
Copy !req
38. A flaming meteorite
is heading toward the Earth.
Copy !req
39. Huh?
Copy !req
40. It's the end of the world!
Copy !req
41. At precisely 0800 hours.
Copy !req
42. A judgment is upon us. Repent!
Copy !req
43. The end of the world is at hand!
Copy !req
44. The end of the world.
Copy !req
45. - Hey!
Copy !req
46. Yuck!
Copy !req
47. Snowy!
Copy !req
48. Poor Snowy!
You're stuck in the melted tar.
Copy !req
49. Come on, We'll—
Copy !req
50. They're absolutely panic-stricken.
Copy !req
51. The tires are bursting from the heat.
Copy !req
52. What next?
Copy !req
53. Woe, a judgment!
A judgment is upon us.
Copy !req
54. You?
Copy !req
55. There will be famine
and pestilence and measles!
Copy !req
56. Look, why don't you go home to bed?
Copy !req
57. Sit down and look what I brought you.
Copy !req
58. Behold the judgment.
Copy !req
59. No!
Copy !req
60. No! No! Leave me alone!
Copy !req
61. I must have been dreaming.
It wasn't the end of the world.
Copy !req
62. We're alive!
Copy !req
63. Snowy, it was only an earthquake.
Copy !req
64. Let's get to the observatory, Snowy.
The scientists made a mistake.
Copy !req
65. Prof. Phostle!
Copy !req
66. Professor Phos—
Copy !req
67. You bungling imbecile! Out, out, out.
Copy !req
68. How dare you call yourself a scientist?
Copy !req
69. Is something wrong?
Copy !req
70. He made a mistake on the figures.
Copy !req
71. All my calculations were wrong!
Copy !req
72. But something happened out there!
Copy !req
73. Oh, only a small piece
of the meteorite hit us.
Copy !req
74. The rest passed by.
What a disappointment!
Copy !req
75. Professor?
I have the spectroscope of the meteorite.
Copy !req
76. But this is incredible.
Copy !req
77. I have never seen
such a formation before.
Copy !req
78. I have discovered a new metal.
Copy !req
79. Congratulations, professor.
May I suggest the name Phostlite?
Copy !req
80. You may. Let's celebrate.
Copy !req
81. Order ten pounds of jellybeans!
Copy !req
82. Do you know where it landed?
Copy !req
83. It was tracked to the Arctic Ocean.
Copy !req
84. Arctic Ocean? We'll never find it now.
Copy !req
85. But if it was big enough,
Copy !req
86. maybe part of it is sticking up
out of the water.
Copy !req
87. Do you think so?
Copy !req
88. You could form
an international expedition.
Copy !req
89. We could get funding from
the International Scientific Society.
Copy !req
90. We're going to the Arctic!
We're going to the Arctic!
Copy !req
91. The Aurora sails
Copy !req
92. in search of the meteorite
that hit the Earth.
Copy !req
93. Let's have a few words
with Prof. Phostle,
Copy !req
94. the leader of the expedition.
Copy !req
95. We thank
the various governments
Copy !req
96. who agreed to help fund our research.
Copy !req
97. Would you be
kind enough to introduce your team?
Copy !req
98. Gladly.
Copy !req
99. We have Doktor Otto Schulze
of the University of Munich,
Copy !req
100. Professor Paul Cantonneau of Paris,
Copy !req
101. Señor Porfiio Bolero y Calameres
of the University of Salamanca,
Copy !req
102. the famous Swedish scholar
Bjorgenskjold,
Copy !req
103. and the renowned physicist
señor Dos Santos from Coimbra.
Copy !req
104. Captain Haddock is in command
of our research ship
Copy !req
105. and Tintin will accompany us
as a representative of the press.
Copy !req
106. Ah, this is the life, Snowy.
Copy !req
107. I think we should go back inside.
Copy !req
108. We're making good time.
Copy !req
109. We'll reach the Arctic Ocean
tomorrow if this weather keeps up.
Copy !req
110. Captain? I think you should see this.
Copy !req
111. Why those thieving toads!
Freshwater amphibians!
Copy !req
112. Is something wrong?
Copy !req
113. The Peary set sail
from San Rico yesterday.
Copy !req
114. They want to beat us to the meteorite.
Copy !req
115. If The Peary wants a race,
they've got it.
Copy !req
116. Engine room! Increase speed ten knots.
Copy !req
117. I'll do my best.
Copy !req
118. Captain,
there's something strange going on.
Copy !req
119. An expedition like this
is very expensive.
Copy !req
120. Every government in the world
has helped finance us.
Copy !req
121. So? What are you getting at?
Copy !req
122. Who's financing The Peary?
Copy !req
123. Mr. Director, gentlemen,
we're going to be rich.
Copy !req
124. The new metal in the meteorite
could be worth millions.
Copy !req
125. We're taking a big financial risk,
but I assure you,
Copy !req
126. I have taken precautions.
Copy !req
127. The Aurora will not reach the meteorite.
Copy !req
128. Careful, Snowy!
You don't want to get washed overboard.
Copy !req
129. Ah, Tintin!
Copy !req
130. Nice little breeze, isn't it?
Copy !req
131. I can't see a thing.
Copy !req
132. Don't worry.
The operator's monitoring the radio.
Copy !req
133. He'll tell us if anything's close.
Copy !req
134. No!
Copy !req
135. We're not going to make it.
Copy !req
136. Thundering typhoons!
Copy !req
137. Ship wreckers!
Copy !req
138. Road hogs! Demolition dimwits!
Copy !req
139. What sort of captain
sails without lights?
Copy !req
140. Why didn't he use his radio?
Copy !req
141. You'd think that idiot
was trying to sink us.
Copy !req
142. Yes, you would.
Copy !req
143. They failed. Those fools!
Copy !req
144. We're back where we started,
but I'll get them yet.
Copy !req
145. Good morning, Tintin.
Don't you just hate this...
Copy !req
146. ice.
Copy !req
147. Those maggot-eating grubs,
Copy !req
148. trying to sink my ship!
Copy !req
149. Wait till I get my hands on them!
Copy !req
150. - Blistering typhoons...
Ahoy, Captain!
Copy !req
151. Ship sighted on the port side.
Copy !req
152. It's The Peary.
Copy !req
153. They'll beat us to the meteorite.
Copy !req
154. Not likely.
The Aurora's got a fine strong engine.
Copy !req
155. We'll overtake them this afternoon.
Copy !req
156. Captain, we have an emergency.
Copy !req
157. What?
Copy !req
158. I gathered you
Copy !req
159. because at approximately 0800 hours,
Copy !req
160. The Aurora received an SOS signal.
Copy !req
161. If we move to answer the distress call,
Copy !req
162. The Peary will beat us to the meteorite.
Copy !req
163. There are people on that ship.
Their lives are in danger.
Copy !req
164. There's no question about it, Captain.
We must go to their aid.
Copy !req
165. - Yes.
- Agreed.
Copy !req
166. All hands topside. Rudder starboard left.
Copy !req
167. This SOS doesn't name the ship.
Copy !req
168. We managed to get "VIL,"
Copy !req
169. but then we lost radio contact.
Copy !req
170. Another unidentified ship, huh?
Copy !req
171. This is the research ship Aurora
to the shipping registry office.
Copy !req
172. We hear you, Aurora.
Go ahead.
Copy !req
173. We'd like a location check on all ships
beginning with the initials "VIL."
Copy !req
174. Over.
Copy !req
175. Captain, I've called everyone,
Copy !req
176. and I learned there are no ships
whose names start with the letters "VIL"
Copy !req
177. operating anywhere near these waters.
Copy !req
178. The SOS was a fake.
Copy !req
179. Blistering barnacles!
Copy !req
180. Engine room. Increase speed.
Copy !req
181. Who would pull such a crazy stunt?
Copy !req
182. The people financing The Peary.
Copy !req
183. By making us turn around,
they've won the race.
Copy !req
184. A message
from The Peary.
Copy !req
185. They saw the meteorite.
Copy !req
186. We still have a chance, Captain.
We've got the seaplane.
Copy !req
187. Good luck, Tintin.
Copy !req
188. There it is.
Copy !req
189. We've sighted the meteorite.
Copy !req
190. Really?
Copy !req
191. - Hooray!
Copy !req
192. Where is it?
Copy !req
193. It forms an island
sloping slightly towards the west.
Copy !req
194. Great snakes!
Copy !req
195. The Peary has beaten us to it.
Copy !req
196. The Peary has beaten them to it.
Copy !req
197. That plane is from The Aurora.
Copy !req
198. No, wait.
Copy !req
199. They've just launched a boat.
Copy !req
200. They're just lowering a boat.
Copy !req
201. Pull!
Copy !req
202. Come on, come on, pull, pull!
Copy !req
203. Have you gone crazy, Frank?
Copy !req
204. One more!
Copy !req
205. He did it!
Copy !req
206. He did it!
Copy !req
207. The Aurora will be here in a few hours.
Copy !req
208. We'll wait here!
Copy !req
209. Take this food.
Copy !req
210. Goodbye.
Copy !req
211. Yuck!
Copy !req
212. A worm!
Copy !req
213. Come on, Snowy, let's take a look around.
Copy !req
214. What is that?
Copy !req
215. Let's get out of here.
Copy !req
216. I think we're safe now.
Copy !req
217. Whoa!
Copy !req
218. An apple tree?
Copy !req
219. It must've grown from the apple
I threw away.
Copy !req
220. The meteorite is causing this.
Copy !req
221. It's affecting the growth
of everything on this island.
Copy !req
222. That's the last straw.
Copy !req
223. Great snakes!
Copy !req
224. Run, Snowy.
Copy !req
225. No!
Copy !req
226. Phew!
Copy !req
227. We're sinking!
Copy !req
228. Over here!
Copy !req
229. The meteorite is sinking.
I'm going to try and land. Over and out.
Copy !req
230. Where'd he go?
Copy !req
231. I can't get any closer.
Grab onto this rope.
Copy !req
232. Got it.
Copy !req
233. Ready, Snowy? Let's go.
Copy !req
234. Tintin, what are you doing?
Copy !req
235. Hurry! Hurry!
Copy !req
236. Hurry up, Tintin!
Copy !req
237. Tintin!
Copy !req
238. We did it.
Copy !req
239. There they are!
Copy !req
240. I brought back a piece of the meteorite.
Copy !req
241. Look out!
Copy !req
242. The ship Aurora
Copy !req
243. has returned from their successful
meteorite expedition.
Copy !req
244. And in related news,
Copy !req
245. the police said
they will be laying charges
Copy !req
246. against the San Rico Bank
for sabotage and fraud.
Copy !req
247. Back on The Aurora,
Copy !req
248. pieces of the mysterious
and powerful meteorite
Copy !req
249. are now in the hands
of a grateful scientific community,
Copy !req
250. thanks to Captain Haddock and Tintin.
Copy !req
251. ECLAIR
