SpaceX’s Polaris Dawn Mission – Recent Updates
SpaceX is preparing to launch its Polaris Dawn mission on August 19, 2024, with Jared Isaacman set to become the first private individual to conduct a spacewalk. The mission, initially scheduled for 2022, faced multiple delays, most recently due to prioritizing the Crew-9 mission and addressing rocket explosion issues. Polaris Dawn aims to explore new aspects of human spaceflight, traveling beyond low Earth orbit without docking at the ISS. This mission is a significant milestone in space tourism, showcasing the potential for private space travel and contributing to spaceflight research. The launch will use SpaceX’s Crew Dragon spacecraft, focusing on spacewalks, communication, in-space refueling technology, and human behavior in microgravity.
