Message From Acting NASA Administrator: Confirmation of Jim Bridenstine as NASA Administrator

I’m happy to report to you that Rep. Jim Bridenstine has been confirmed by the Senate to be the next NASA Administrator.
 
I’ve been talking to Jim, and I know he’s eager to begin leading this team. Please join me in giving him a big NASA Family welcome. He joins our great agency at a time when we are poised to accomplish historic milestones across the full spectrum of our work. I know first-hand how talented and dedicated our workforce is, and that all of you stand ready to work with our new Administrator to accomplish our exciting goals, including returning Americans to the Moon.
 
As I hand the reins off to Jim, I want to once again express my deep appreciation to every one of you for everything you accomplished on behalf of the nation and our space program during my time leading the agency.
 
It has been an honor and a pleasure to work on so many incredible missions at NASA throughout my career. I look forward to seeing what Jim and the NASA Family accomplish in the coming years. I know it’s going to be amazing.
