Habitec Secures Moon Rock

November 1, 2007


Moon Rock

Habitec Security has been awarded a contract to secure a rock from the Moon. On Nov, 12 2007 Gene Kranz, a former NASA flight director, will return to his alma mater Central Catholic High School with a rock from the Moon. Mr. Kranz was born and raised in Toledo, Ohio before he became well known for his role in saving the crew of Apollo 13. Mr. Kranz is donating the Moon rock to Central Catholic which will be on display at the Kranz Exploration Learning Center.


In order to display the Moon rock to the public Central Catholic has to follow strict security guidelines required by NASA. Habitec has been chosen as the security company to design a system that will assure NASA the Moon rock will be secure. Habitec will be installing a sophisticated digital video system which among other features will have the capability of seeing in total darkness. Along with monitored 360 degree motion detectors, NASA can be assured that the Moon rock is in good hands with Habitec.

About Habitec Security


Today, it is one of the nation’s largest residential and commercial security companies. In Toledo, Habitec has the only locally owned and operated UL listed and FM approved command center. By operating our own command center we dictate the level of training and service our technicians and operators must maintain. The best detection devices in the world are of little use if the monitoring equipment and personnel aren’t maintained by quality people.


Habitec Security prides itself in the premier service that they offer to their clients. Habitec’s business philosophy and professional approach to the security industry resulted in the remarkable customer retention of 95% over a ten year period, mainly because of customers moving. This is one of the reasons that Habitec has recently opened full service branches in the Columbus and Northern Michigan markets.
