Mark Kelly would be awesome.

I'd expect the status quo unless they say otherwise? I wonder if at some point there'll be a move like the Obama admin cancelling Constellation to cut costs and pork. Artemis (SLS/Orion especially) could use a kick in the butt. Weird that those are Constellation leftovers... Gateway should probably also be scaled back or cancelled.

A NASA Administrator like Lori Garver could be interesting. Based on her experience and thoughts on commercial cargo and crew, I guess I'd expect the ISS replacements to ramp up and starting to move further off SLS.
