NASA named astronaut Terrence W. Wilcutt to replace James D. Halsell Jr. as NASA's Manager of Operational Activities at Star City, Russia. Wilcutt was the 10th astronaut to serve in the rotational position, supporting the training and preparation of NASA astronauts at Gagarin Cosmonaut Training Center and acting as a liaison between NASA and Russian management. Wilcutt had flown on three missions: the first, in 1994, as the pilot on Mission STS-68, to study the Earth's surface; the second, in 1996, as the pilot for the fourth Shuttle-Mir docking mission, STS-79; and the third, in 1998, as the commander of Mission STS-89, the eighth docking mission.
