A British Paralympian and surgeon could become the first person with a physical disability to live in orbit after the UK Space Agency signed a deal with US startup Vast for a mission to the Haven-1 space station. John McFall, part of the European Space Agency astronaut reserve, is cleared for orbital activities and may participate in the mission following the station's 2027 launch.
