Step into UCF's early days as Florida Technical University! University president Charles Millican and his brother-in-law Norman Van Meter crafted a mascot merging Florida's citrus boom with FTU's academic mission for future NASA and Cape Canaveral engineers. Behold the Citronaut, an alien-headed, orange-bodied creation. Although ahead of its time, the student body quickly petitioned for a new mascot and triumphed in 1970, becoming the Knights.
