Steve Cook Wants to Be The Next Deputy Center Director at Marshall

Editor’s note: That’s right, Steve Cook wants to be Deputy Center Director at Marshall. He has been telling people he is now aiming for the job. Given that Cook already has a posse that goes around portraying him as a leader – including making certain that he is introduced at meetings as “the next von Braun” – such grand ambitions are not at all out of character. It will be interesting to see what Steve’s official bio looks like when that is announced – with his previous accomplishments i.e. his role in the failures of X-33, X-34, ISS Propulsion Module, and (soon) Ares 1. At least he is consistent in his job performance.
