ACADEMY OF SCIENCES
Left: One of the many special projects of the Academy was the submarine boat Torpedo. The boat was later stolen by the pirate, Basseliniden, who eventually used it to rescue Princess Bronwyn from Count Bugarach's yacht, the Limnoria.
Right: Another project in which the princess had a special interest was the aeronef Albatross, which pursued her when she and her companions escaped from Toth by balloon.
THE GREAT
MOON PROJECT
After the downfall of her enemies and her abdication of the throne, Princess Bronwyn became an active and enthusiastic supporter of many of the Academy's projects. One which especially fascinated her was the development of the Moon Rocket, by means of which she, Professor Wittenoom and one other scientist made the hazardous journey into space--from which only two were fated to return.
