Amit Kshatriya, a veteran of NASA's Moon to Mars Program, has been named associate administrator, the agency's top civil-service role.
"Amit has spent more than two decades as a dedicated public servant at NASA, working to advance American leadership in space. Under his leadership, the agency will chart a bold vision to return to the moon during President Trump's term," Acting NASA Administrator Sean Duffy said in a statement on Wednesday (Sept. 3) that announced the selection.
