When the monument was dedicated on Oct. 23, 2015, it marked a watershed moment for the arts, and their convergence with science and human rights, at Georgia Tech. 

At the foot of the sculpture is engraved in granite a star chart depicting the Atlanta night sky on December 10, 1948 — the date of the signing of the United Nations’ Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
