Garry Lindberg Snippet A

Aeronautical engineer Dr. Gary Lindberg describes his role as Project Manager for the development of the "Shuttle attached remote manipulator system", now widely known as the Canadarm. In accordance with past practices involving joint ventures with the US National Aeronautical and Space Agency (NASA), a Memorandum of Understanding was drafted and signed by the President of the National Research Council and the Chief Administrator of NASA. When External Affairs and the US State Department found out, they said "wait a minute – that's an international treaty" and waded in.
