Top astronaut John W. Young told the Orlando Sentinel that he had been forced to resign as chief of NASA's astronaut office. Young claimed that his reassignment to a new post, as special assistant to the director for Shuttle engineering and safety, stemmed from his frequent criticism of NASA safety policies after the Challenger disaster.
