🚀 From Québec to the Moon 🇨🇦🌕 In 1969, when Apollo 11 touched down on the lunar surface, the world watched in awe.

A company based in Longueuil, Héroux Machine Parts (now Héroux-Devtek), manufactured key components of the lunar module’s landing gear — the legs that absorbed the impact and kept Eagle standing on the Moon. These parts had to perform flawlessly in extreme conditions, with no margin for error.

The ascent stage carried Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin away from the Moon, leaving the descent stage behind as a silent marker of exploration.
