AstroAccess: AstroAccess is a project dedicated to advancing disability inclusion in space exploration for the benefit of humankind.After a successful mission in 2021, a smaller group of AstroAccess Ambassadors flew with the Aurelia Institute in May 2022 as a part of a mixed-research payload flight. Two additional AstroAccess Ambassadors flew with another mixed-research flight campaign with Zero-G in November 2022. A second fully-dedicated parabolic flight was conducted from Houston, TX in December 2022. Ambassadors and volunteers prepared numerous experiments and demonstration tasks, rigorously applying lessons-learned from the previous flights. Collaborators included SciAccess, Inc., an international non-profit dedicated to advancing disability inclusion in STEM.
