In the early years of human space exploration, only those with the narrowly-defined and exclusionary “Right Stuff” could be astronauts. Though we’ve come a long way in expanding our ideas of who can go to space, we’re still leaving out so many people because of disabling design decisions. In this episode, Cady and Andrew talk with Ann Kapusta of AstroAccess about how we can make space more accessible for disabled people. Spoiler: the technological barriers are far less challenging than the social and cultural ones. Also, Yuri’s Night, a lot about kicking—Jennifer Lawrence kicking Cady, Cady kicking balls, and Cady and Andrew just kicking it together—and a new Sounds of Space.
This week’s Sounds of Space comes to us from the folks at ALMA Observatory in Chile.
