Message pour l'éternité (Message for Eternity) is the fifth book in the Yoko Tsuno comic book series written by Roger Leloup and published (in French) in 1975. (ISBN 2-8001-0670-0)
A Secret Intelligence Service project investigates the source of a strange and weak radio signal, originating in a crater on the Soviet-Afghanistan border. The signal was detected by the antenna in Pleumeur-Bodou, France, and is thought to be coming from a Handley Page 'Heracles' aeroplane that disappeared in 1933 while carrying important Intelligence Service documents.
Tsuno, visiting the communication centre in Pleumeur-Bodou after having landed nearby in a borrowed glider, catches the project's director's eye for her gliding skills. Tsuno and her friends are drafted into the operation as pilots of the planes: custom-designed for visiting the crater and finding the Heracles. Once inside the crater, Tsuno stumbles on an old drama, which harbors one demented survivor, a horde of baboons doing the man's bidding, and an enemy whom she did not expect. In the end, she has to struggle to return the man and the plane to the world in which they belong.
