Senate confirms Bolden and Garver
Posted: Thu, Jul 16, 2009, 7:47 AM ET (1147 GMT)
The US Senate confirmed Wednesday night the nominations of Charles Bolden and Lori Garver as NASA administrator and deputy administrator. The Senate approved the nominations through unanimous consent, a process that expedites approval provided there is no opposition. The confirmation came one week after the two appeared before the Senate Commerce Committee for a relatively brief, uncontroversial hearing. The two are expected to begin work at NASA within the next week.
