Tim Hortons is marking Canada’s role in the upcoming Artemis II lunar mission with a limited-edition Moon-themed treat box available only in London, Ontario, hometown of Canadian astronaut Jeremy Hansen.
The special release introduces the Moonbits 10-pack Timbits box, designed to highlight Canada’s participation in the first crewed mission to orbit the Moon since the Apollo era. Information printed on the commemorative packaging shares how Hansen, who grew up in the London region, will become part of history as a crew member on Artemis II, making Canada only the second nation to send an astronaut around the Moon.
Guests in London will be able to purchase the themed Timbits packaging at participating locations once the Artemis II launch date is confirmed. Current planning places the earliest possible launch window in early February, with availability continuing while supplies last.
The initiative gives local residents and visitors a way to connect everyday coffee runs with a significant moment for Canadian space exploration. The box also brings a sense of hometown pride to London as anticipation builds around Hansen’s upcoming journey.
Those interested in learning more about the mission can explore details through the Canadian Space Agency, which continues to share updates about Artemis II and Canada’s involvement.
The limited-edition packaging offers a small but timely nod to Canadian participation in space exploration, connecting a familiar coffee and doughnut stop with a milestone moment on the global stage.
