It was an honor to celebrate @NASAJPL’s 90th anniversary and the inauguration of Caltech’s new president, Dr. Ray Jayawardhana!
For nine decades, Caltech has led JPL to become NASA’s premier center for deep space robotics, and together they are responsible for some of humanity’s most incredible achievements. I look forward to Dr. Jayawardhana's continued leadership and to many more JPL-led triumphs for science and for America.
