摘要

Selecting a list of luminaries who stand ut in an industry so heavily populated with brilliant, accomplished people is no easy task. Over the course of the past year there were dozens, if not hundreds, of people around the world who made a major impact on the space community. The people highlighted in this special report are not necessarily the 10 most important or most accomplished. They are 10 people the editors of Space News judged to have made a unique, significant and in some cases lasting contribution to the development of space in the past year. In compiling the list we tried to recognize people from all three major areas of space activity — civil, commercial and military. They are presented here in no particular order, with one notable exception: In four hectic, action-oriented months as NASA administrator, Mike Griffin has set in motion significant changes that are intended to shake the agency out of at least two decades of relative stagnation and set it on course to accomplish the lofty goals set in January 2004 by U.S. President George W. Bush. The upheaval and change at NASA when Dan Goldin took over the administrator's job in 1992 after the first President Bush fired Adm. Richard B. Truly happened at a snail's pace by comparison. Griffin entered the job with a sense of urgency and determination that has not been seen around NASA in some time. Admired inside and outside the agency for his intellect, frankness and boldness, Griffin has set the bar high for himself and his agency. While it is still far too early to tell whether he will succeed, Griffin's impact already is unmistakable. And he is unquestionably making a difference.
