  • From Paralympics to Prosthetics in Space - John McFalls extraordinary Journey

    From Paralympics to Prosthetics in Space - John McFalls extraordinary Journey
    Oct 22 2025
    What does it take to reinvent yourself after a life-changing accident? In this episode of Taste of Bionics, host Ranga Yogeshwar speaks with John McFall. A paralympic medalist, trauma and orthopedic surgeon and a member of ESA's astronaut reserve taking part in ESA’s “Fly! Project”. Fly! aims to explore whether an astronaut with a physical disability could embark on a long duration mission to the International Space Station and with that to make space missions accessible for all. John shares his extraordinary journey: from losing his leg in a motorcycle accident to becoming one of the fastest sprinters in the world on running blades, to practicing medicine and now training for space exploration with ESA’s Fly! Project. Together, they explore how prosthetic innovation powered John’s remarkable comeback as an elite athlete, why inclusion in science, sports and even space will shape the future and how advanced technologies are redefining human potential. At its core, the conversation is about what life without limits on earth and far beyond can look like. Tune in to discover how technology, resilience, and curiosity can redefine what it means to be human and why Ottobock is at the forefront of enabling that future. Editorial note: In the intro, John McFall is referred to as the first astronaut with a prosthetic limb. He is, however, the first person with a physical disability to receive the medical mission ready status to potentially go on a long-duration mission to the International Space Station.
