Many sources are reporting that Ron Dittemore is stepping down as head of NASA's Shuttle Program. It seems he was in the process of resigning when the most recent accident happened, and stayed on to deal with the aftermath. So, this isn't a drumming-out, or at least not a recent one.

Buckethead, what can you tell me about the people the Boston Globe report may take over-- "William Readdy, NASA's associate administrator for space flight, and his deputy, Michael Kostelnik"?

Here's hoping for a new direction in NASA space vehicle thinking. Rotsa ruck.
