The 1990 Americans with Disabilities Act changed the lives of millions of people, helping to make public spaces accessible to those with disabilities. But thirty years after this law, space exploration is still a disabling endeavor that excludes too many people. How can we change this? How can we make space inclusive of everyone? In this episode, part 2 of a series, Cady and Andrew talk with Sina Bahram of Prime Access Consulting about his experience aboard AstroAccess’s zero-gravity flight. Sina shares his insights into how to design more inclusive space missions. Also, Axiom’s new mission, holographic doctors (in space!), golden record confusion, black hole foreshadowing, and a new Sounds of Space.
