First Citadel Graduate Heads to Moon

NASA just named the Artemis III crew — led by Randy Bresnik, the first Citadel graduate ever chosen for spaceflight — as humanity gears up for a return to the moon. Bresnik, a retired Marine colonel and veteran shuttle flyer, joins astronauts Andre Douglas (making his debut), Frank Rubio (holder of the U.S. record for longest spaceflight), and Luca Parmitano (ESA). This mission, launching in 2027, will test key systems before Artemis IV lands at the lunar South Pole in 2028 — marking a pivotal step in NASA’s bold plan to establish a lasting human presence beyond Earth.
