Mysteries of the Quantum Universe

The bestselling French graphic novel about the mind-bending world of quantum physics- Tintin meets Brian CoxFamous explorer Bob and his dog Rick have been around the world and even to the Moon, but their travels through the quantum universe show them the greatest wonders they've ever seen.
