	Daniel S. Goldin
		When Goldin became Administrator in the spring of 1992, outside observers perceived the Agency to be a bloated bureaucracy pursuing missions that were too expensive, took too long to develop and flew too infrequently.
		Goldin also cut the time required to develop Earth- and space-science spacecraft by 40 percent and reduced the cost by two-thirds, while increasing the average number of missions launched per year about four times.
		Goldin is a member of the National Academy of Engineers and a Fellow of the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics.

	ASME NEWS Online January 2001 -- Space exploration and bilogy make up inseparable parts of the future
		Goldin, the NASA Administrator for seven years, is an advocate of interplanetary space travel who played a major role in establishing the International Space Station and an ongoing series of robotic missions to Mars.
		Achieving self-sufficiency, Goldin said, will require producing robots that are capable of assessing their environment and making decisions on how to proceed; creating machines capable of self-diagnosis and self-healing; and designing propulsion methods that achieve a good fraction of the speed of light.
		As an example, Goldin pointed to the waste of a computing industry that spends $5 billion to build a chip factory and is facing a future of $50 billion factories, yet, despite a well-known and rapidly approaching physical limit to silicon chip miniaturization, spends only hundreds of millions of dollars researching new computing technologies.

		Goldin pointed out that in earlier decades NASA's goals were in complete alignment with the will of the American people and the direction of the Congress but that with the changes in world politics and the economic pressures facing everyone NASA was a little bit adrift.
		Goldin told employees that it was important to understand where we had come from, what are the real issues we face and what are the possibilities for the future.
		Goldin said that after being here for six months, he was convinced that the talent pool at NASA is second to none in the world.

	Goldin, Daniel Saul (1940-)
		Appointed in 1992, Goldin pursued a policy of “faster, better, cheaper,” reformed the Agency’s management, and implemented a more balanced aeronautics and space program by reducing human spaceflight-funding from 48% of the total budget to 38% and increasing funding for science and aerospace technology from 31% to 43%.
		Among Goldin’s other innovations were new programs of robotic exploration focused on Mars and the Moon, and the Origins program to understand how the Universe has evolved and how common life is on other worlds.
		Before coming to NASA, Goldin was vice president and general manager of the TRW Space and Technology Group in Redondo Beach, California.
