Kathleen Sullivan, the most recent administrator of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), spent 22 days in space as a NASA astronaut. She had a bachelor of science degree in Earth sciences from the University of California at Santa Cruz, and a geology doctorate from Dalhousie University in Canada.
