They're not technically part of Florida's Space Coast, but they used that to declare themselves Space U. I guess it makes them feel good about themselves. Mid 90's they started up a Florida's Space Institute & NASA has some sort of facility over there. Don't believe Space U has ever had anyone in space, but they have a lot of Cadets. The campus is full of them.

UCF is the #1 school for Lockheed Martin graduates. But it is because LM Missiles an Space is in Orlando. And a lot of people get their masters degree at UCF using the tuition reimbursement program.
 
According to US News, neither GT, UCF or Embry Riddle have produced enough astronauts to talk about:


  • United States Naval Academy: 54
  • United States Air Force Academy: 41
  • United States Military Academy: 21
  • Purdue University—West Lafayette: 15
  • Massachusetts Institute of Technology: 14
  • Stanford University: 8
  • University of Colorado—Boulder: 8
  • Auburn University: 6
  • University of Illinois—Urbana-Champaign: 6
  • University of Texas—Austin: 6
  • University of California—Berkeley: 5
  • University of California—Los Angeles: 5
  • University of Washington: 5
This must be focusing on undergraduate and ignoring graduate school or something.

Is there a bigger poser school than UCF? Citronauts, that fake national championship, claiming to be part of the “Power 6” a few years ago - it’s embarrassing, and more embarrassing that we ööööing lost to them.
