Fusée lunaire, Moon Rocket, Objectif Lune, Destination Moon

thingiverse

Nice to publish again! This model is inspired by the iconic Tintin: Objectif Lune rocket, also known as the Destination Moon rocket. The design was created using Solidworks software based on the drawings found in Tintin's book. To ensure accuracy, I aimed to replicate the original drawing as closely as possible - this is not a copy or scan. The model available here is 200 mm high, but you can also find designs for 400 mm and 800 mm rockets. To minimize material usage, the rocket is designed to be empty. This 200 mm model includes details such as a flame and cloud effects to simulate takeoff. To assemble the model, simply print the red parts first, followed by the white panels. The white panels may require cleaning and adjusting to fit perfectly on the main body. Once assembled, glue the parts in place. I hope you enjoy this inspired design! Please note that the original design was created by Monsieur Hergé, Tintin's creator. I didn't seek permission before designing this model, but I hope the Hergé family will accept it as a tribute. For those unfamiliar with Mr. Hergé and Tintin, I highly recommend reading their collection of books. If you need larger versions of the rocket, you can find 400 mm and 800 mm designs available. Simply scale up the 800 mm design for even bigger rockets. All models were printed using my CR10 stock, Arianeplast PLAf or red, grossiste3D snow white for the white parts. I used a layer height of 0.2 mm and 20% infill. You can increase the infill density in the pod area to add more weight to the bottom section.
