Veteran astronaut John Grunsfeld, AKA "The Hubble Hugger" (STS-67, STS-81, STS-103, STS-109, STS-125) is leaving NASA to pursue his new career as Deputy Director of the Space Telescope Science Institute (STScI) in Baltimore, MD.

It's always sad when an old vet such as Dr. Grunsfeld decides to move on.
However, I think that Dr. Grunsfeld is the best possible man for the Deputy Director of STScI position.
Good luck, Dr. Grunsfeld!
