Artemis II shows how research — right here in Kentucky — is helping address one of human spaceflight’s most dangerous challenges: surviving the fiery return to Earth. 🚀 🌎

On this edition of “Behind the Blue,” researchers share how their work made the “Mission to the Moon” possible — offering an inside look at the innovation behind heat shield technology and the role @ukyengineering plays in advancing it.

These are not abstract statistics. Every number is a life changed and a story to be told about more Kentuckians being educated by outstanding faculty and more lives touched through healthcare, research and discovery.

The University of Kentucky adopted blue and white as its official colors in 1892. 🔵 ⚪ The shade of blue, which is close to a royal blue, was chosen when a student asked the question, "What color blue?" At the time, Richard C. Stoll (who lettered in football at UK in 1889-94) pulled off his necktie and held it up. The students then adopted that particular shade of blue.
