Call Me Joe by Poul Anderson

A story about remote controlled centaurs on Jupiter. Or a pseudo hard sf romp through a cripple's need to transcend his limitations. As always, the symbol of a horse is always liberating. As is a new, unexplored planet, with breathtaking vistas. I liked how the story alternated between the human controller and the controlled alien. The ending is life affirming.
