Peter Martinez and I marked the moment of transition in the @SWFoundation Executive Director’s role at 08:00 German time, exactly midnight at Foundation HQ in Colorado. Standby for even more contributions to space sustainability under Peter’s able leadership.
After years of working his way to the top, my son Rob chose to change direction briefly for charity. Fortunately Carol and I were too far away to watch! @CenterStateCEO – at Boulder, CO

I was honored to join the Kennedy family today at Arlington National Cemetery to celebrate the life of Robert F. Kennedy. Fifty years after his death, his message is more important than ever: We can do better. And because we can, we must. #RFK50
