An important message, reinforcing the aims & objectives of @UK_CAA science & research strategy to inform the development of medical standards for spaceflight participants. Great to be at the FAA #CST2024 collaborating with international colleagues to make space safe/accessible.

As we increase the number of [space flight participants], the level of safety needs to meet the mission. In fact the public will demand you meet this mission. The good news is this is entirely in your control." - FAA Administrator, Mike Whitaker at #CST2024
