Among the Stars:

Features space, astronomy, or stardom. HARD MODE: The title references the theme, too.

The Three-Body Problem, by Cixin Liu

Disability Representation:

A main character has or gains a disability to which they must adapt. This disability must be grounded in reality: if a 4,000 year old Prince of the Shokan lost an arm, that would count; if he became a werewolf, it would not. HARD MODE: The piece is at least partially from their perspective.

I was reading onyx storm (Rebecca Yarros). While not stated explicitly, the main character exhibits symptoms of EDS.
