Saturn V Rocket

– Switches from Hydra-Electric are utilized on the Saturn V rocket used to transport Neil Armstrong and all the other astronauts to the moon. The Company’s products are used as part of the fuel and pneumatic systems, and also as part of the “chicken switches” (devices that allow an astronaut to eject the capsule in which he or she rides in the event that a rocket malfunctions).
