Just Happened! A Closer Look At SpaceX’s First Commercial Spacewalk: Polaris Dawn
Reaching new heights and pushing the boundaries of space exploration-that’s exactly what SpaceX and the Polaris Dawn team are doing right now. Unprecedented records are being broken, setting new standards in spaceflight. Naturally, this puts pressure on competitors like Boeing, with its troubled spacecraft, and Blue Origin, still focused on suborbital space tourism.
So, what remarkable achievements have SpaceX and Polaris Dawn accomplished in orbit? And how will these milestones shape the future of the aerospace industry? Let's dive into these questions in today’s episode of Great SpaceX.
Just Happened! A Closer Look At SpaceX’s First Commercial Spacewalk: Polaris Dawn
After 2.5 years of anticipation, Polaris Dawn has delivered one of the most groundbreaking milestones in space exploration: the first private spacewalk mission. The wait has been well worth it, with the mission achieving impressive moments that will shape the future of human space travel.
The long-awaited spacewalk took place on Flight Day 3, after Dragon descended from its apogee of 1400 kilometers (the highest altitude achieved in over half a century) to an orbit of 190x700 kilometers. This EVA occurred at the highest altitude since the Apollo 17 mission in 1972, breaking barriers for space exploration and setting new records that push the limits of human capability in space.
Just Happened! A Closer Look At SpaceX’s First Commercial Spacewalk: Polaris Dawn
Before the spacewalk began, all four astronauts wore SpaceX’s custom-designed EVA suits. Mission commander Jared Isaacman and astronaut Sarah Gillis were the two crew members who stepped outside the Dragon capsule to perform the EVA activities, while Scott Poteet and Anna Menon remained inside to monitor and control the spacecraft and systems. Preparation for the spacewalk included breathing protocols, pressurization, and nitrogen purging of their bloodstreams, all of which had been conducted on Flight Day 1.
When everything was set, the Dragon hatch opened, and Isaacman and Gillis officially stepped into space, marking one of the most significant milestones in this new era of private space exploration. Each astronaut took turns performing essential EVA tasks, such as moving arms, hands, and legs, to test the functionality and maneuverability of the new spacesuits. This careful alternation limited their exposure to the vacuum of space to around 20 minutes per turn. Isaacman and Gillis worked seamlessly throughout the mission, showcasing the suit’s capabilities and confirming that everything had gone smoothly. However, more official data is expected to provide an in-depth analysis of the suit’s performance.
A unique challenge of this EVA was the fact that Crew Dragon does not have an airlock, meaning the entire interior of the spacecraft was exposed to the vacuum of space during the EVA process. Additionally, the spacecraft's altitude meant the crew was navigating a region with an abundance of space debris, a significant obstacle for any EVA.

Fantastic job Polaris Dawn crew and Spacex🚀
Finally, an EVA suit that doesn’t look like the Michelin man.
Even SpaceX's suits will eventually look bulky once they need to include life support systems within the suit. The life support here is located in the dragon capsule and delivered to the suit via a tether.
@@RMX7777 Fair enough, but maybe they can put it all in a backpack form and give them more agility.
Don’t matter how it looks functionality ISSA MUST
Comparing apples to oranges again with the SpaceX vs NASA suits?You might want to check images of Ed White’s spacewalk suit from 59 years ago. It was just as tight and frankly looked better looking than the SpaceX suits.
Congratulations ELON..and Polaris crew…you have made a giant day in our history books…it was the most amazing sight I have ever seen a beautiful day..also a massive day for all who work with or for SPACE X… congratulations to all…
Great comment 👍
Great job SpaceX. Thank you for bring back the dream.
Yeah
I think the biggest milestone here was simply that the suits worked. That's not a small detail.
Agreed.
The EVA suits needed testing, it looked like they learnt a lot, ready for the next version.
Congrats to SpaceX. Be back on Earth safe🙏
❤❤❤❤❤
Congratulations, Spacex! More important than elections!
Definitely
Huge Success!!! God Bless you so much! Pretty much everything for Honest Elon!!🎉
Elections will be extremely important for spaceX!
Yet again, Elon, You make me proud to be an American. Your leadership in Space is un-matched. Long live SPACE X ! LONG LIVE ELON MUSK !
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Greatly put ❤
Elon your full of it ...Gemini did so much more in 1965 to 66.
@@MrHalvnir Yes, he should be considered a national treasure that this point. America without Elon will be so far behind China.
That is fantastic news. It has been a looonnnggg time since we have walked in space. Other than EVAs at the ISS.
Congratulations to the WHOLE CREW!!!
Congratulations SpaceX amazing 👏 🤩 you all made this plausible
👏👏👏
I watched it live this morning. It was so GREAT!!!
New milestones of space exploration
@@colonbina1 Amen to that. One small step. One step for mankind.
Watching this, I can understand why the other two companies are jealous of Spacex.
🤣🤣🤣
Love everything SpaceX, Mission, Tesla, StarLink and special thanks to all and Elon Musk….From Guam 🌴🇺🇸🇬🇺🇺🇸🇬🇺🌴
Great job Polaris Dawn and good flight on the remainder...
Good job !
Yeah
Apart from the groundbreaking achievement with the commercial height flight, it is the performance of the new suits. They are a definate step forward for astronauts, and future steps.
Great comment ♥️
Congratulations, another great milestone!
Yeah yeah
Impressive. Very bold design. I wouldn't be surprised of SpaceX is also working on time travel in a Nevada bunker.
2:30 Diversity.
7:48 Nice shot!
This is a great moment in history Elon and Polaris Dawn crew. Congratulations and best wishes 👍👍👍👍❤️
"In history" lol
🚀🚀🚀
@@mervstash3692 ????
Hahaha Elon isn't stoping at 91 flights he is going over 100 before the end of November
Exactly
go SpaceX Go Elon Musk
Great job for SpaceX and the team at Polaris dawn
🚀🚀🚀
Amazing. Now we need to be able to use Starlink so video from the Dragon doesn't get lost when passing over the Pacific and other areas where there were no ground stations.
Don't think that will work. Starlink antennas are directed towards the earth, and this mission took place above the starlink orbit.
So great to experience great engineering, great owner and great staff. The World applaud 👏 you!
👏👏👏
Space Xs biggest problem is jealous government instrumentalities making absurd demands on outcomes and slowing Starship development. No one else is so abused. Political much?
Agree 👍
What are government instrumentalities?
Yes for us greybeards, massively frustrating, seeing the posative progress by space x team, struggling to believe in any negativity about this,,, sad so many mouth breathers who don't know what they are talking about, inspired by Hunter s Thompson, I've come with a name for them , 'hatewhores' 🤣😂
Great news thank you for the update
Put a s Al on a board to study if it loses self esteem do to rocket launches wtfevr
Fantastic innovation with huge movement forwards. A real shock and awe demonstration. Keep up the great work SpaceX team, crew and Elon. Kudos to all.
🚀🚀🚀
I thought those suits just keeps them alive in an depressurisation emergency that's incredible they are actual spacesuits! Well done spacex
This isn't the suit used during normal launches to the ISS. These are actual EVA suits. However, they lack any form of independent environmental management, and the dragon capsule is too small to accommodate the necessary packs. Not to mention, the hatch would need to be enlarged. Baby step. Voskhod 2, back in 1965, achieved a free space walk (albeit tethered to the craft) but almost ended in disaster. SpaceX's suit is far superior to the suit used by Leonov, but even so, after 59 years this isn't exactly ground breaking progress.
@@davidgapp1457 It is ground breaking for a private company to achieve without billions of tax payers funding. Even the latest NASA funded space suits are having issues and delays trying to get to where Apollo was a half century ago.
Awesome!
♥️♥️♥️
The Real Fantastic Four!!!!
👍👍👍
Thank you for the great update on Polaris Dawn! I don’t understand why the FAA & NASA are not doing everything they can to keep SpaceX innovating like only they can and get Starship flying as quick as possible? I am beginning to think it is political and not the technology, what do you think?
Starship was politically delayed
Yeah, keep following and discussing on our channel for new updates
Definitely a political delay, SpaceX even said as much in their statement.
@@nn98b64 FAA want to delay starship until presidential election. Launch licence delayed until November. Coincidence or politics?
Can't wait for the jetpack option.
It was really cool!
That is breathtaking moment
@@colonbina1 Yes it is. And history in the making.
The suits appear far less bulky and more flexible . Impressive!
Yeah yeah ♥️
This Is The Great Feat Of Our Time!!!
One more step for mankind; one more step for Elon Musk.
Yeah yeah
American superiority by SpeyceX
Congratulations on a successful spacewalk...
Way to go SPACEX!!
NOW ON TÒ THE MOON AND MARS..
🚀 🌎 🌙.....
🚀🚀🚀
Anyone who has watched Clark's 2001 and viewed the commercial Boeing craft carrying the passengers to space knows that's not going to happen. Go Elon ! 😁
How can it "be like something out of a science fiction film" when we did this (and more so) fifty years ago. I don't mean to diminish this but it is not a NEW achievement. Congratulations on helping REGAIN our forward exploration of space.
It's always Newtonian mechanics, Rocket Equations and pressing stuff rapidly through nozzles, but it finally LOOKS noncluncky, as in movies. Except for the ones where the spacesuit is integral to the coolness factor (Alien, Outland)
it seems closer to something like the tv show 'The Expanse'
I’m enjoying watching SpaceX get the US back into space. And watching them show the world how it’s done!
My mom and I were watching the live launch of spacex first crewed flight to ISS. Im 42 and I was cheering "Come on, go" as the booster passed the tower.
My mom said "now imagine you were ten and watching apollo 11 on the tv!"
Blue Orgasm "astronauts" are crying in their beer!
🤣🤣🤣
1, this was quite a mission😊
Congratulations, Elon!! So proud of you!
☺️☺️☺️
I was part of the Apollo program, doing suit testing and human stress testing in hard vacuum conditions. Lots of cardio research for extended missions. I was gladly working a 70+ hr week on salary. Eventually I hit a glass ceiling where I couldn't get a raise or promotion because of union rules. I left and went private sector, never looking back. The deciding point was almost getting run over in a hallway as the hourly workers were stampeding towards the door, knocking me down. We got to the moon, because of a few great men and a do-or-die mentality. Sadly those men don't call the shots today in the legacy organizations.
Buddy you were not part of the Apollo program, ain't nobody gonna believe that
Amazing.
It is truly great to see space exploration taking off again. I think they could of done this a lot sooner if they didn't bother training these guys on moving like a puppet in Thunderbirds.
What spacewalk? You call it spacewalk? This looks more like space standup. The person have to step outside the ship and do maneuver in space, away from the ship.
Real spacewalk is when astronauts steps outside the space station to carry out repair work.
Real space walk clearly doesn't exist. It's all simulation, done at a studio. International Space Station is just a pile of space junk strapped together in low orbit.
@ozar_midrashim please hop off the internet.
Exactly what I’m saying he didn’t leave the spacecraft and float around a bit. that’s a basic spacewalk let alone all this shit that NASA has done throughout the years.
Wow, you know a lot about the subject. They should employ you!
Fix your grammar.
I think spacex has taken the lead in space exploration.
No one else is currently even close !!!
It's a good thing they have full body suits...If they were to fart out in space it might send them to the moon.....lol
Can you imagine the amount of methane produced by four people over 5 days in a sealed capsule?🤢🤮
@@knewhunter1extra fuel for the thrusters😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 good one
Slightly better than the Blue Origin Amazon Basics ride. 😂😂
Hubble is safe!
Yeah, but let's wait for Nasa's decision
1 BZ to the team. Well done.
That was a great CGI. Space walk 👍🏼
In Musk we trust.
He would be a great president of NASA, but eventually SpaceX will outgrow and outsmart NASA, so he better stay were he is. 😂
Now if they could just escape the tenacles of the FAA.
This is crazy to me because with all the tech we have now….we seem to have forgotten that we landed on the moon, and yet this seemed to be hard….why is that?
Simple.......we never landed on the moon
It's all about politics, USA lost interest after multiple back to back landings on the moon. Then they cut the fundings as the Cold War era ended.
Now our goal is to use little budget as possible for space exploration while still maintaining new technology
God yes…we landed on the moon with analog computers using transistors. We had passion and will back then, to beat Russia, we were unstoppable.
@@timber1111 Sorry just because your generations done very little, done Diss what you cant understand
Boeing figured out how to make the door come off long before SpaceX
I could do this if I could skip the skydiving part of training
Elon needs to be in charge of nasa
Elon is doing just what Elon needs to do. no one can fix NASA.
wow just like the movie! gravity!
Can't believe we still have some flat earthers.. crazy!
One reason Tom Cruise is working with space on making his next movie in the international space station
He likely chose Boeing to bring him to ISS. That's why filming still delayed till now.
One step for Man and ONE coming up for Tom Cruises!
Can you imagine
Great video Kevin 👍
Thanks for your great comment 👍
NASA: We did it before . Musk : hold my beer !
Yes but don't forget those ones they aren't astronauts hold my coca Cola
Russians were first. In 1965. NASA, however, were the only people (as far as I know) to achieve a truly independent space walk, using a thruster pack. I will be truly impressed if or when Musk (or NASA via SpaceX) is able to replace the Hubble's gyros. Now THAT would be a mega achievement. I expect when Starship is flight proven, this will happen. For that mission I will be cheering for SpaceX.
Amazing achievements by Dragon and the crew! And pls.. do not show Elons' tweet to Taylor Swift. LETSGOOO SPACEX!!!
🚀🚀🚀
Blue origin keeps giving them promises. Elon musk says full self-driving anytime now. But there's a difference you can hop into a Tesla and take it for a ride. Blue origin they're more long NASA lines. And I sure hope they're not cost plus in them guys.

Do you think that EVA suits that have self life support systems are quietly being developed? Hope so!!!!
♥️♥️♥️
meanwhile...back on earth, V P Harris has called for more ducks and geese for Hattians starving in Ohio...you know to unburden what has been....
And cats. Cats apparently taste like chicken.
...by recognizing the significance of the passage of time.
Elon, can you see Boeing from up there? Go Polaris, Go SpaceX, Go home Boeing and take Jeff Bozo with you.
Well said 👍👍👍
Do you want a business without competence? Do you want american companies to fail? That is not what I would expect from an american patriot.
@@VictorDiaz-lo2mu
boing has already failed, with doors falling off airliners and multiple other failures, starlink leeks and thruster issues, dei issues, and last, but not least, I know you boing employees always like to blame upper management for ALL of the problems that the company suffers from !!!!!
boing can't keep up with what someone with a vision is able to accomplish !!!!!
boing's time has passed !!!!!
Oh, and one last thing, Space _X_ IS an American success story !!!!!
IF the US Govt Regulatory State get's (or is pushed) out of they way!
a HUGE 1
Wow 😯
It’s wrong that you included those outdated CGI clips showing the astronaut getting fully out of dragon and floating in free space outside the capsule, when you KNOW that that option was ruled out months ago. The EVA was amazing and record breaking as it was; absolutely no useful purpose was served by showing those ads!
They hype anything they can or daily clicks. Two more months, minimum, until S5 launch., expect more hype, repetition, and filler
Somehow I ask myself every time, where is the toilet on Dragon, and how do they do it? It must get quite acquired if there is just one space.
I just want them back home
9:19 Right over New Zealand. And 9:54.
YEA!! ❤
Yeah
Did you notice the elephant sized donkey in the background?
A humble man walks with his head bowed not only to be humble but snakes. just saying

No problem
Great Job Elon....you and Trump are the best and smartest Billionaires out there. We will go far with you two.
Great comment, bro♥️
You sure said that. Point is out. SLS/Starliner/Boeing/Blue Origin and Biden all have this in common..... All out of date overrated and time to throw them the hell out😮😮😮😮

Yeah
It looks like you could actually fight off an alien wearing that suit.
🤣🤣🤣
elon should target moon first.
He wouldn't want to upstage NASA by going there. They would be pissed.
nice suits,
but why wires and no backpacks?
This will make the suit neater. But I think backpack can be used if the astronauts land on any celestial bodies
This is great! Private space astronauts in a total vacuum! Now the USA can EVA again outside of the suits on the space station!!
♥️♥️♥️
Sorry but looks like a Robot esp with the arms
We got the first private citizen in space before we got GTA 6
and hover boards...
😂
It is impressive, but I have already assimilated it, and, I can now joke : now we have to put a park bench in low orbit to sit and see the planet peacefully.
the suits had me worried... they looked so underwhelming compared to the nasa suits. the spacex suits work and thats all that matters.
I’m curious as to how much it costs SpaceX to launch this mission because we all know NASA does it for billions of tax payer dollars.
Probably doesn't cost SpaceX much as Jared Isaacman is the one paying out of pocket to do this.
SpaceX does it for less than 1/10th the cost of NASA. I could get more specific if i had time to dig up a link for a valid reference.
Shame that EV1 or 2 didn’t try to describe what they were seeing. All this movement testing stuff seemed less significant than the experience they were having. Surely it was done before they left?
Actually the Original NASA / Military / Industry Plans, Theories, Designs, Programs and Patents are the Basic Building Block.
Just in the Design of that type of Re-Entry or De-Orbiting was considered in the 1960's - to Current Times in Books, Magazines, Movies, T.V., NASA etc..
One must be as Accurate as possible when talking in Absolutes, Everyone Contributed to what is going on Space Travel not just one person who's main concern is Cash Flow and Marketing.

Serious question , in such a crowded capsule how do they have privacy to go to the bathroom ?
They don't. They use diapers.
In this case, they even had to open the window because one of them farted…
Believe or not, the crew dragon have a private bathroom. It’s hidden in one of the back wall.
It's easy to go on about it too much but it really is quite incredible how SpaceX continually bowls over technological challenges related to spaceflight. Collins & axiom are jointly developing new space suits for NASA which I note are not currently ready, and SpaceX has designed and completed new space suits with vastly greater functionality and sartorial snappiness that would not be out of place on the starship enterprise.
And that is just a side gig to revolutionising rockets, rocket engines, doing spacewalks without an airlock, providing Western access to the ISS, and many many more.
Yes, and space toilets
a powerful fart can do as a trust and send them out of orbit or send them to the moon
