SpaceX launched its Polaris Dawn mission, featuring a four-person civilian crew aiming for multiple milestones, including the first commercial spacewalk. The mission lifted off early Tuesday morning after weather delays. This marks the first time SpaceX employees have ventured into space. Polaris Dawn, led by billionaire Jared Isaacman, aims to reach record-breaking orbital heights, surpassing NASA’s 1966 Gemini 11 mission, and conduct a risky spacewalk. The mission will last five days, with life support systems carefully monitored for a safe return.
