NASA announced the appointments of three additional voting members to the Stafford-Covey Task Group mandated to perform an independent assessment of NASA's implementation of the CAIB's recommendations. The new members were Kathryn C. Thornton, a physicist, former astronaut, and veteran of three Space Shuttle missions; Susan J. Helms, Chief of the Space Control Division's Requirements Directorate at U.S. Air Force Space Command, who had been a member of five Space Shuttle crews and had lived aboard the ISS as a member of Expedition 2; and career systems analyst Christine H. Fox, Vice President and Director of the Operations Evaluation Group at the Center for Naval Analyses. The new appointments brought the total number of task group members to 30, including one member selected from NASA staff who would not vote. Members representing industry, academia, and government, divided among three panels, would examine the management, technical, and operational aspects of NASA's return-toflight effort.
