NASA MANAGEMENT ASTRONAUTS ANNOUNCE CHANGES, RETIREMENT
Veteran astronauts and Flight Crew Operations Directorate managers Ken Bowersox and Kent Rominger have announced intentions to depart from NASA.
Both will be vacating their current positions later this month. Pending his retirement from the Navy, Bowersox will move to a position supporting Michael Coats, director of NASA's Johnson Space Center. Rominger will leave the agency in September to pursue an opportunity in the private sector.
"Ken and Kent have each made invaluable contributions to space exploration and to this country," said Coats. "Their dedication and leadership have been a key contribution to the safe return of the space shuttle to flight and to the resumption of the International Space Station's assembly in orbit. We'll miss them and we wish them the best."
Astronaut Ellen Ochoa will become director of flight crew operations. Ochoa has served as deputy director of flight crew operations since 2003. She will be the first female and the first Hispanic to lead that office, which oversees the Astronaut Office and Aircraft Operations. Ochoa is a veteran of four spaceflights.
Succeeding Ochoa as deputy director of flight crew operations will be astronaut Mike Bloomfield, a veteran of three space shuttle flights including commander of STS-110.
Astronaut Steve Lindsey, who commanded space shuttle mission STS-121 in July, will become chief of the Astronaut Office. Lindsey has flown four shuttle missions.
Bowersox became the director of flight crew operations in February 2004 after four shuttle flights and a long-duration mission on the International Space Station. He served as a commander of both the space shuttle and the International Space Station and led on-orbit activities in science operations, Hubble Space Telescope servicing and space station operations.
Rominger has served as chief of the Astronaut Office since 2002. He has completed five shuttle flights, commanding two and serving as pilot on three. He has logged more than 1,600 hours in space. His missions included two shuttle flights to the International Space Station. Rominger also flew on both the longest and second longest shuttle missions in history.

Pour info, je suis plutôt partisan du terme spationaute. Mais afin d'éviter d'être trop en marge de la société, j'utilise le terme le plus répandu : astronaute et cosmonaute :suspect:

Va falloir recruter. Ceci dit, il me semble que Tognini avait parlé d'une sélection en 2007.Fabien a écrit:Je ne sais pas si on en a déjà parlé mais Pedro Duque quitte le corps des astronautes ESA (dommage, il avait volé avec Glenn) pour une carrière définitive dans le privé !

Pour moi c'est clair. Je rêve d'aller là-haut depuis que je suis haut comme trois pommes, alors dès qu'il y a une sélection, je postule! Même si je sais que je n'ai aucune chance (je suis daltonien!), c'est une question de principe...

Astronaut Ed Lu Leaves NASA
HOUSTON - Veteran International Space Station astronaut and space shuttle flyer Ed Lu has left NASA to accept a position in the private sector. Lu flew on two shuttle missions and lived six months aboard the station as a member of the orbiting laboratory's seventh crew.
"Ed has done an exceptional job as an astronaut during his twelve years of service," said Chief of the Astronaut Office Steve Lindsey. "He contributed greatly to the construction and operations on the International Space Station, particularly in the very difficult period after the Columbia tragedy. Additionally, his involvement in development of the Crew Exploration Vehicle will help NASA tremendously as we look forward to exploring our solar system. He will be missed by the Astronaut Office and NASA. We wish him the very best in his future endeavors."
Lu's experience includes more than six hours spacewalking. He was the first American to launch as flight engineer of a Russian Soyuz spacecraft as well as the first American to both launch and land on a Soyuz. He has visited two space stations on his missions.
Selected as an astronaut in 1994, Lu first flew in May 1997 aboard Atlantis for the STS-84 mission, the sixth shuttle mission to visit the Russian space station Mir. He next flew in 2000 on mission STS-106, also aboard Atlantis, performing a spacewalk during that flight to help outfit the Zvezda module of the International Space Station, the outpost's living quarters. Launching on the Soyuz, Lu returned to the International Space Station in 2003 as flight engineer and NASA science officer of Expedition 7, the first two-person resident crew.

NASA Names Astronaut Ellen Ochoa Deputy Director of Johnson
HOUSTON -- Veteran astronaut Ellen Ochoa has been named the next deputy director of NASA's Johnson Space Center. Ochoa is a four-time space flier who has served as director of flight crew operations at Johnson. She will succeed Bob Cabana, who was named director of NASA's Stennis Space Center in Mississippi.
"Ellen has proven her exceptional capabilities many times in space as well as in her many roles on the ground, including most recently her superb management of flight crew operations," said Johnson Director Mike Coats. "We are extremely fortunate to bring her outstanding reputation throughout the agency and her wealth of experience to this new task."
Ochoa will assume duties as deputy director after the next space shuttle mission, STS-120.
Ochoa considers La Mesa, Calif., her hometown. She earned a bachelor's degree in physics from San Diego State University and a master's degree and doctorate in electrical engineering from Stanford University. She managed the Intelligent Systems Technology Branch at NASA's Ames Research Center in Moffett Field, Calif., before being selected as an astronaut in 1990. She flew on space shuttle missions STS-56 in 1993, STS-66 in 1994, STS-96 in 1999, and STS-110 in 2002, logging a total of 978 hours in space.
