<\/font><\/em>In a press release, Boeing self-claim the \u2018Vision for Space Exploration is a strategy of human and robotic space missions designed to return humans to the moon sometime between 2015-2020,\u2019 which will raise some eyebrows \u2013 given it is the first time a date prior to 2018 has been mentioned in any official literature.<\/font><\/p>\n

Tasked with ensuring Boeing get a lion\u2019s share of the multi-billion dollar contracts, Elbon will lead Boeing efforts on the Crew Exploration Vehicle (CEV), Crew Launch Vehicle (CLV) and other NASA Constellation program elements.

\"\"Elbon most recently served as International Space Station (ISS) vice president and program manager.<\/p>\n

\u2018The leadership changes will enable Boeing to successfully execute current programs and position us to better support NASA in implementing the Vision for Space Exploration,\u2019 said Brewster Shaw, Boeing Space Exploration vice president and general manager.<\/font><\/p>\n

Other moves noted by Boeing involve Joy Bryant, who takes over Elbon\u2019s vacated position as ISS vice president and program manager. Bryant previously served as Space Exploration chief engineer and was responsible for managing the engineering support to Boeing\u2019s ISS, Space Shuttle and Constellation programs. Bryant will lead Boeing in engineering, development, integration and operation of NASA\u2019s ISS program.<\/font><\/p>\n

Joe Gernand replaces Bryant as director of engineering and program chief engineer. He previously served deputy program manager and chief engineer. In his new assignment, Gernand is responsible for managing and integrating engineering support for all Boeing Space Exploration programs.\"\"<\/font><\/p>\n
