NASA administrator Jim Bridenstine has left the US space agency with none of the drama associated with certain other American government handovers.
Bridenstine s departure was somewhat inevitable. He began work in 2018 under the Trump administration and has stepped down with the inauguration of a new US president. During almost three years of service, he witnessed the dramatic Soyuz MS-10 abort and the US regain its domestic human launch capability.
While Bridenstine oversaw impressive achievements in the robotic exploration world (he leaves just weeks before the Perseverance rover is due to land on Mars), he will also be remembered for his close association with NASA s Artemis programme, which was set the goal by the Trump administration of returning humans to the Moon by 2024.
