Not one to brag, but this is pretty momentous. By dropping this one tube to the ground, I’ve officially started setting aside samples that Mars Sample Return could bring back to Earth someday. Learn more: go.nasa.gov/3WzZ5qF

Great story on @AstroAccess in the @DailyMail: dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/ar…

A trio of NASA ambassadors, including Space Tech's Denna Lambert, took flight on an @astroaccess-sponsored @ZEROGResearch flight to help advance disability inclusion in space by testing innovative tech for assisting blind & hard of hearing space explorers: go.nasa.gov/3Woo1RO

Don't let anybody tell you that it's too inconvenient for them, or you're not suited for it, or you don't have the skill set. Science is not about your senses. Science is not about your body. Science is about the world. And the world belongs to you." - Sheri Wells-Jensen

The success of this experiment is thanks to all of the team members' hard work and support, including my experiment co-lead Gabriel Barroso de María. It has been a blast working with this team and I can't wait to see what's ahead! #GalacticAccessibility 3/3

Part of this experiment was using a demonstration seat that is similarly configured as what is currently used commercially by astronauts. Buckling into a seat quickly is a critical task for an astronaut, so these results will help pave the way to make space more inclusive. 2/3

So proud of this team! Had the honor of co-leading the Seat Docking experiment in which ambassadors with limited mobility and blindness performed getting into their seats and buckling into a 5-point harness in microgravity. We had great results and can't wait to share more! 1/3

I had the honor of supporting Dr. Sheri Wells-Jensen during @astroaccess Flight #2 aboard @GoZeroG. She is just one of brilliant team of investigators laying the groundwork for making space accessible to all! 🚀🌍🌏🌎 #theinspired24 #SpaceforEveryone #GalacticAccessibility
