In a speech before the Republican National Convention on Wednesday night, retired astronaut Eileen Collins delivered a sharp rebuke of NASA's recent leadership, endorsing controversial Republican **minee Donald Trump in all but name.*

Collins, who was the first woman to command a NASA space shuttle mission, had been expected to deliver a **npartisan speech, and stopped just shy of issuing a more explicit endorsement.*

However, the speech will be viewed as a clear critique of NASA's leadership under the Obama administration.
