The following are Dr. Griffin's accomplishments while at NASA's helm:
•The Space Shuttle successfully returned to flight
•The Exploration Systems Analysis Study (ESAS) was completed
•The Constellation Program was started, and is currently designing, developing and testing hardware to execute exploration missions
•There is International support for NASA's Global Exploration Strategy
•The Hubble Space Telescope repair mission was reinstituted
•The International Space Station is approaching completion
•The Commercial Orbital Transportation System (COTS) program was initiated and the first commercially developed rocket has flown
•The James Webb Space Telescope project has been put on track
•Earth Sciences funding has been increased to new highs
•Fundamental Aeronautics research was restored

Most notable in his long list of accomplishments is the restoration of SM4, the 4th and final servicing mission to the Hubble Space Telescope.  It is directly through his vision, leadership and unique talent to "rally the troops" at NASA and beyond that we will have the HST through 2013 and possibly beyond.

In the aerospace industry and within NASA, there is a widely held view that Dr. Griffin has instituted more positive change in the agency than any administrator in memory.
