Meet John McFall, UK Paralympian soon heading to space

UK Paralympian John McFall may soon go to space. He could be the first person with a disability to live in orbit, possibly on the Haven-1 station launching in 2027. McFall said, "We're saying it's OK for people with disabilities to be astronauts." His mission will study prosthetics and space effects.
