    i remember visiting a few decades ago. I remember seeing old videos in black and white of all the Canadian space rocket launches, both failures and successes. Do you still have it? And if yes, could you put it on KZread? Its an important part of history that most youngsters are totally unaware of these days. Most are calling the new space rocket factory of Canada, the first Canadian space rocket factory. Even Global News is calling it that. I seek to correct them, but its really hard when i dont have access to that old VHS film.

    You may be thinking of the Canada Science and Technology Museum or Canada Aviation and Space Museum? We would recommend reaching out to Ingenium, that manages both museums and their shared collection since they may have the recording you are looking for.

    @@CanMusHistory There was no space museum yet, aviation museum didnt exist yet either (i witnessed it getting built) there were 2 museum as far i remember in those days in Ottawa/Gatineau, the Museum os History and Science (thats you) and the Museum of War. I cant imagine it being from the museum of war tho. Then again i was just a little kid in those days.

    by the way, if you go a little village along the Saint-Laurant called Saint-Denis or St-Denis. (means same thing) Follow the road thats right next to the river, all the way to the dead end. Then leave the road, follow the edge of the river. Make sure that when facing the river you go right. You'll see 2 islands ish. I say ish because they are only island for half the day, other half there is no water around them. Just a weird landscape off red rocks, brown seaweeds and puddles of water filled with tiny live shrimps. Quite the site but this is not the reason i told you the museum of History about it. The real reason is located on the furthest island ish. At the opposite side, you will find a WWII German submarine!!! Stuck on the shore of that island. I know this because my grandma used to live in that village and i loved exploring the shores.
