Astronaut, and that isjohn mcfall. John mcfall has been selected using exactly the same criteria as all european astronauts. But unlike any of the others, he has a physical disability. Now he s taking part in a groundbreaking project. Being an amputee, being an astronaut was never really on my radar because like the military, you wouldn t pass the medical selection process. I thought i would have the skills, a mix of skills and scientific background that i could really help them answer this very aspirational question of can we get someone with a physical disability into space, to work in space safely? and i thought i could be that person. For the last ten years, john s been working as an orthopedic surgeon. Hi, sir. How are you? but his life s about to change, possibly forever. It s daunting. It s quite scary, be ....
