Destination Moon: Part 1 - S3-E9

Destination Moon: Part 1 - S3-E9
Continuity mistake: To launch the model rocket into outer space, Tintin pushes a lever with a green handle. Once the control tower is told to engage the nuclear motor, the first lever that Tintin had pushed is now a blue lever and the second lever that Tintin is now holding onto is a grey lever. Two shots after that, both the levers are now green. (00:16:00 - 00:16:35)
Destination Moon: Part 1 - S3-E9
Continuity mistake: When the car taking Tintin, Haddock and Snowy to meet with Calculus leaves the airport, the number plate is 1941, but when they are welcomed after entering the base, the number plate is now 1491. (00:02:10 - 00:03:45)
Chosen answer: If Hector was seriously intent on removing King Ottokar's scepter from the glass cage holding it and launching it through the window with the camera, then Hector would have been forced to knock out the two guards so they would not have interfered with Hector's plan as soon as he removed the scepter from the glass. As for Hector, himself, was explained when Tintin was explaining how Hector stole the scepter. Tintin placed a twig inside the camera and it launched out of the camera. Hector would have placed the scepter inside of the camera, and would have been knocked unconscious due to the spring effect created when the scepter had been launched.
