Current and future Cal Poly students gathered in the University Union to watch the historic moment Artemis II astronauts concluded their 10-day trip around the moon, landing back on Earth just off the San Diego coast. Alumnus Victor Glover piloted the mission.

For many at Cal Poly, the successful splashdown was even more inspiring. It was evidence that for graduates, even the moon is not out of reach.

Anika Nangia is an incoming freshman who said she finds it inspiring.

“It truly means that anything is possible and it’s so cool to see how like we can do that,” said Nangia.
