This is exactly the wrong person to chart a needed new course:
- Kshatriya worked within JSC’s mission operations directorate, climbing the ladder from robotics staff to robotics operations lead working on ISS systems.
- He then served a stint as a Mission Control flight director, where he oversaw cargo and crew missions to the ISS, before becoming deputy manager of the ISS vehicle office.
- In 2021, Kshatriya moved to Washington, DC, as assistant deputy associate administrator for exploration systems development for the SLS, Orion, and Exploration Ground Systems programs.
- In 2023, he became deputy associate administrator for the Moon to Mars program.
In other words, despite concerns expressed yesterday about China in the Senate clown show, business as usual.
We need to keep Indians out of any leadership position in government or business. They will take over NASA as they have many other organizations.
