The indelible image of Buzz Aldrin standing on the moon during Apollo 11 mission captures mankind's greatest achievement – a testament to human ingenuity and technological prowess. Neil Armstrong and Eagle reflected in his visor remind us that even amidst vastness, technology brings people together. Saturn, captured in its natural colors by Cassini spacecraft, showcases how technology enables exploration beyond our own planet. It unveils secrets hidden within celestial realms while igniting curiosity about what lies beyond. Reflecting upon history, we witness the use of an arquebusse from the 16th century - a precursor to modern firearms - highlighting how technological advancements have shaped warfare throughout time. Stevens Institute established itself as a beacon for knowledge and innovation since its inception in Hoboken, New Jersey back in 1870.
