Former NASA Administrator Jim Bridenstine released the following statement today on the Biden administration’s nomination of Pam Melroy to be the Deputy Administrator of NASA.

 

“I’m extremely pleased to see that the Biden administration has nominated Colonel Pam Melroy for NASA Deputy Administrator. Pam is a friend, and I believe her experience as an Air Force test pilot, Deputy Director of the Tactical Technology Office at DARPA, and Space Shuttle commander will serve her well as NASA returns to the Moon under the Artemis program. I urge the Senate to confirm her swiftly.”
