Re: Rethinking Accessibility In Space
I think the blind people who sit at home and demand more money are not the people who would have become astronauts if not for that pesky blindness getting in the way. We already have blind people doing the Earth side of things, in terms of designing
Re: Rethinking Accessibility In Space
I tend to agree to an extent that blind astronauts probably wouldn't add much value, since a sighted person can learn to do everything a blind person can, but the reverse isn't true. You would also be a liability in emergency situations,
Re: Rethinking Accessibility In Space
Just because the advancement in technology is deprecating fundamental knowledge and training doesn't mean this knowledge shouldn't be gotten and the training no longer required. There will be a time when the machine fails.As an example, I am

Heh, kinda makes me think of [Roger Wilco: Space Janitor], hey you might think space toilets breaking or backing up is funny, but its [no joke]. Also, if the power's out and presumably all the lights with it, what functional difference would the

NVSA is ready... accept it isn't, the flight computer just crashed and took all the spaceship's power with it. You sure? I can't see the light it might still be on. Hold on I'll go launch from the floor in 0g and check the bulb
Re: Rethinking Accessibility In Space
One could make the argument that many of the standards of being an astronaut are rooted in anachronistic 1950's post industrial military thinking/ableism, and not indicative of the more flexible and steamlined space technology of today. For exampl

Re: Rethinking Accessibility In Space
Apparently a guy did go blind in space, at least once. Not while on break, or in a vehicle, but while conducting an EVA. Blind in space, not in a spaceship. And there were absolutely no negative consequences, and he recovered once he was back inside
Re: Rethinking Accessibility In Space
Astronauts are trained to operate even when their sight is impaired, so there's not much value a blind astronaut can bring here that the sighted ones don't already do. on top of that, we'd need qualified people to be astronauts. In th
