  Minor characters in Tintin - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Colonel was formerly aide-de-camp to King Muskar XII of Syldavia, whom (in Tintin's own words), he shamefully betrayed, taking part in a conspiracy to steal the Ottokar Sceptre and force the king to abdicate his throne.
Jorgen has the rather bleak distiction of being the only person in the Tintin stories to be killed on stage, in the presence of Tintin and his friends.
Also he smuggled in Colonel Jorgen into the Space rocket, thinking he was a journalist chasing the scoop of the century.

 Explorers on the Moon - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A Bordurian secret agent who Tintin had previously encountered in King Ottokar's Sceptre, Colonel Jorgen, has been hiding in the rocket, and with the aid of Wolff, he makes an attempt to take over the rocket and leave our heroes marooned on the Moon.
Tintin succeeds in defeating the plot, and eventually locks Jorgen up in the hold against protests by other characters that they won't have enough oxygen to last the way home unless they leave him on the Moon or kill him.
Part of the way back to the Earth, the agent escapes and is accidentally shot by Wolff while they are grappling for the agent's gun.

Most accounts of the history of Van Diemen's Land have skipped rather lightly over the years in which Colonel William Sorell was Lieutenant-Governor, preferring to concentrate on the eventful and controversial twelve-year reign of his successor, Colonel George Arthur.
But the years 1817 to 1824 were the time when the colony began its growth spurt and it was Sorell, not Arthur, who was the first to deal with the rapid increase in the numbers of free settlers and convicts.
This major study deals with the life of the Danish adventurer Jorgen Jorgenson - known to students of Tasmanian history as the 'Convict King' or the 'Viking of Van Diemen's Land', and to those of Icelandic history as the self-styled 'Protector of Iceland' during a short-lived overthrow of the Danish governor's authority in 1809.

I'm not sure even Jorgen's devious mind could've planned the crate to fall at the exact moment when Calculus was underneath it!
Most likely Herge put in this comment by our hero (who is usually right) to divert attention away from the possibility of saboteurs, so Wolff being unmasked as a mole and Jorgen's presence on board would be a surprise to the last moment.
It's made clear in the story he had been in hiding up until the moment he knocks Tintin out, and since so many characters were going in and out of the hold to get equipment, the chances of him moving around in there without anyone seeing him are slim.
