Geoghegan Chris
SBAC President
SBAC
21 September 2005:

New SBAC President Chris Geoghegan, Chief Operating Officer, BAE Systems plc, warned members that global industry success relied on increasing investment in new technology, greater productivity and meeting the threats from emerging aerospace economies.

Speaking today (21 September) at SBAC’s annual dinner at the Savoy Hotel, London Mr Geoghegan said,

‘’ I am proud and honoured to become SBAC President. These are good times for the Aerospace industry. Turnover increased to almost £18 billion in 2004, new orders were up 2 per cent to £22.6 billion - the highest level since 1998 - and productivity improved by nearly 8 per cent. With worldwide aircraft orders at the highest levels for five years and production levels up 26 per cent the UK is set to enjoy a strong 2005. ’’

SBAC welcomed the Government’s commitment to deliver a Defence Industrial Strategy, and Mr Geoghegan commented,

‘‘The commitment from John Reid and Lord Drayson to deliver the Defence Industrial Strategy is extremely good news and fully supported by industry. We hope that this process will provide a clear basis for industry to make investment decisions and produce a greater appreciation of the wider economic benefits of defence expenditure. If we are to sustain a forward looking defence industry it is critical that the process delivers greater investment in key technologies and demonstration programmes to support critical capabilities.’’

The continuing dispute between the EU and US on support for large civilian aircraft is unsettling for all parts of industry. A negotiated resolution on fair terms for both parties would be the best result. In the meantime it is essential that the Government does all it can to help secure work for the A350 programme here in the UK.

Mr Geoghegan said,
“The development of new aircraft continues to be uniquely challenging and the wider benefits associated with their development is prized by governments. It is essential that in this changing environment the UK Government develops competitive support schemes capable of securing major commercial and military aerospace programmes.’’

A priority for the coming year is to improve understanding and collaboration along the supply chain. SBAC will be a key focus in the coming months to improve these relationships and ensure that all companies are best placed to meet global competition.

Commenting Mr Geoghegan said,

‘’Global competition is intensifying from both traditional and emerging aerospace economies. The customer / supplier relationship will always involve tough negotiations and hard commercial choices, but a better understanding and more collaborative relationship has the potential to deliver benefits for all.’’

Notes to Editors

SBAC is the national trade association representing suppliers to the civil air transport, aerospace defence and space markets operating in the UK economy. It represents over 1500 member companies, assisting them in developing new business globally, facilitates innovation and competitiveness and provides regulatory services in technical standards and accreditation.

At present, the UK has the world’s second largest aerospace industry. UK based aerospace activity had a turnover of more than £17bn in 2004, supporting a highly skilled workforce of over 255,000 people.

Chris Geoghegan is Chief Operating Officer of BAE Systems plc with responsibility for the company’s European joint ventures, commercial aerospace interests and the UK wholly owned electronic businesses. He is also has responsibility for the corporation’s commercial and procurement functions.

Mr Geoghegan has worked for BAE Systems for more than 30 years operating in a variety of environments and management disciplines. He has been resident in Indonesia, Columbia, South Africa and USA, whilst selling commercial aircraft and has held positions in human resources, procurement and factory management.

He is perhaps best known for his association with Airbus where through the 1990s he was Managing Director of BAE Systems’ Airbus intererests and on the Board of Airbus Industrie. In 1998 Chris moved to Toulouse to help transition Airbus GIE towards a single company.

The promotion of Goldman, the center's deputy director since October 2006, is effective immediately. He replaces Bob Cabana, who left in October to become the director of NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida.

"Gene is a terrific manager and a highly respected engineer, with broad experience in rocket propulsion system development and engine testing," NASA Administrator Michael Griffin said.

A native of Russell, Miss., Goldman worked as a project engineer for the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) from 1978-1981. He left for a position at Gulf States Utilities in Baton Rouge, La., from 1981 to 1987, before returning to TVA, in Athens, Ala., from 1987 to 1990.

Grunsfeld John
administrator for the Science Mission Directorate
NASA
Physicist and Former Astronaut John Grunsfeld to Head NASA Science Directorate

WASHINGTON, Dec. 19, 2011 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- NASA has named physicist and former astronaut John Grunsfeld as the new associate administrator for the Science Mission Directorate at the agency's headquarters in Washington. Grunsfeld will take the reins of the office effective Jan. 4, 2012. He succeeds Ed Weiler, who retired from NASA on Sept. 30.
Grunsfeld currently serves as the deputy director of the Space Telescope Science Institute in Baltimore, which manages the science program for the Hubble Space Telescope and is a partner in the forthcoming James Webb Space Telescope. His background includes research in high energy astrophysics, cosmic ray physics and in the emerging field of exoplanet studies with specific interest in future astronomical instrumentation.

A veteran of five space shuttle flights, Grunsfeld visited Hubble three times as an astronaut, performing a total of eight spacewalks to service and upgrade the observatory.

"John's understanding of the critical connection between scientific research and the human exploration of space makes him an ideal choice for this job," NASA Administrator Charles Bolden said. "I look forward to working with him to take the agency's science programs to even greater heights and make more of the ground-breaking discoveries about Earth and our universe for which NASA is known."

Grunsfeld graduated from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1980 with a bachelor's degree in physics. Returning to his native Chicago, he earned a master's degree and, in 1988, a doctorate in physics from the University of Chicago using a cosmic ray experiment on space shuttle Challenger for his doctoral thesis. From Chicago, he joined the faculty of the California Institute of Technology as a Senior Research Fellow in Physics, Mathematics and Astronomy.

Grunsfeld joined NASA's Astronaut Office in 1992. He logged over 58 days in space on five shuttle missions, including 58 hours and 30 minutes of spacewalk time. He first flew to space aboard Endeavour in March 1995 on a mission that studied the far ultraviolet spectra of faint astronomical objects using the Astro Observatory. His second flight was aboard Atlantis in January 1997. The mission docked with the Russian space station Mir and exchanged U.S. astronauts living aboard the outpost. Grunsfeld then flew three shuttle missions - aboard Discovery in December 1999, Columbia in March 2002 and Atlantis in May 2009 - that successfully serviced and upgraded the Hubble Space Telescope. He served as the payload commander on the 2002 mission and lead spacewalker in charge of Hubble activities on the 2009 flight. In 2004 and 2005, he served as the commander and science officer on the backup crew for Expedition 13 to the International Space Station.

"It is an honor and a privilege to be offered the opportunity to lead NASA's Science Mission Directorate during this exciting time in the agency's history," Grunsfeld said. "Science at NASA is all about exploring the endless frontier of the Earth and space. I look forward to working with the NASA team to help enable new discoveries in our quest to understand our home planet and unravel the mysteries of the universe."
