Florida ex-Sen. Bill Nelson to be tapped by Biden for NASA administrator
Fox News
President Biden is expected to tap former Democratic Sen. Bill Nelson to lead NASA -- a move that could come as early as Friday, multiple current and former NASA officials told Fox News.
Nelson, during his time in Congress, even famously flew on the space shuttle in 1986 as a payload specialist, making him the second sitting member of Congress to fly into space. Nelson, as NASA administrator, will be tasked with leading the agency as it races to return American astronauts to the moon under the Trump-era Artemis program.More Related News
