Today ex-Ecliptic Board member Mike Griffin was nominated by President Bush to be NASA Administrator. See various on-line press reports at SpaceToday.net.

Griffin joined Ecliptic's Board in February 2002 and contributed in many ways to the evolution and growth of the company until taking a new position as head of APL's Space Department in April 2004.
