Is that it? He didn't even qualify? I was wondering how 7 dead astronauts made his chances to fly less likely...
I'm assuming so, since it's not like we cancelled all human spaceflight after the disaster, but if my man's greatest accomplishment was buying a McDonald's franchise then I don't think he was ever on the level of an astronaut - most of them have multiple degrees and a ton of experience doing research on Earth before they ever interview at NASA. The days when they were test pilots are long gone.
