ONE GIANT LEAP FOR PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES
 |
| Rhonel Cinous and Vincenzo Piscopo CEO of United Spinal Association at Johnson Space Center |
Rhonel Cinous, a podcaster and former radio host, has always been a techie.
His interest in adaptive and voice-controlled technology arose after he
experienced a severe spinal cord injury in a snorkeling accident in 2016 during
his first visit to Haiti, his family’s home country.
Following his recovery, the Miami-based Cinous never imagined he would
contribute to a NASA space mission.
But this
month, he found himself at the Johnson Space Center in Houston as part of a
virtual team testing out Callisto, a communication technology project for the
Artemis I mission's Orion spacecraft.
