They had to come up with a plan to rescue the Starliner crew when something goes wrong, didn't they?
Lmao so so true
Real😂
This was so creative, 10/10
Well, this mission will be happening while the whole craft is orbiting the earth so if something goes wrong theoretically they can try it again while saving the astronauts at the same time if that makes sense.
That is some serious funny stuff there. You might be right, you are most likely right. Starliner is a rolling disater. The rocket is unproven (SpaceX just landed thier 20th reuse booster) and six years behind and not reusable booster still can't get off the ground. Ugh.
“Open the capsule dragon!” “I’m sorry David, but I am afraid I can’t do that.”
😅
😮🤔🙄😵
💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀
@@marinuslaurentius6032 ❤❤❤ ohhhh good one mate!
@@marinuslaurentius6032 yes you made a good one! Haha!
It is not just a tether. It's an umbilical. Big difference.
He probably meant to say that
He probably meant to say “intended to” not “supposed to” as well when describing Polaris Dawn. Not much a difference but still.
umbilical tethers are just a sub class of tether
No it's a tether
What is a tether?
Special suits that allow them to walk outside a wearable space craft… I mean I thought they were called Space suits
What could possibly go wrong?😅
Typically space suits have water and heat produced there, maybe he wanted to separate it? Idk tho
There are 2 types of space suits:
IVA (intra-vehicular activity) and EVA (extra-vehicular activity) suits.
IVA suits are meant to be worn inside a pressurized spacecraft, and are therefore lighter and more comfortable. EVA suits are meant for use outside the spacecraft such as spacewalks or moon activity. They include more protection from the harsh conditions of space, such as protection from radiation, micrometeoroids and extreme temperature change.
This is how it was done during the Gemini and Voskhod missions of the 1960's. Yeah, an accomplishment but certainly not unprecedented.
Voskhod had an air lock.
And this is in the private sector not government agencies
@@flipz8632I thought private sector was supposed to be better? Why are they using technologies that have been tested and deemed bad for space travel
@@hannanah8036Because they’re using technologies from the Gemini mission in the 1960s. There, we came full circle.
@@TheSteveSteele full circle to you is private sector claiming to be better, faster, cheaper, more capable etc, getting gov contracts, then using old tech, and often failing at missions or failing to deliver outright, *because* they used the existing tech instead of developing their out using the newer state of the art tech and massive budgets, as they had originally promised?
So defaulting on an agreement is full circle?
Genuinely curious.
You say "lower its apogee", but on the graphic the apogee actually rises
If this succeeds then that means we have a possibility to save our beloved Hubble space telescope
It still has upwards of 15 years before needing a reboost. The ability was already there for NASA to perform service missions, they just contracted it to SPACEX because it’s far cheaper.
@@aztkshorty9138 What would NASA service it with if there was no dragon? Starliner or Orion lmao
@@JamalWitherSpoon
Judging by what is happening, definetly not Starliner ^^;
"A wearable spacecraft"
Sooooo a spacesuit?
They have been spacing walking since the 60s. The Moonwalk, the Space Station(s)!!
Exactly!! This is “nothing new” but folks are getting their pants wet over this!! 😂😂😂😂
actual space suits are not comfortable. they aren't even suits, they're like old diving suits but with an oxigen tank. it's pretty much impossible to move your arms and legs and rotate your head or your body in general. new space suits are more then welcome. also, doing that by depressurizing the entire capsule is extremely risky, and it requires to decompress the capsule after, it really needs test since it was performed only one time ever by gemini mission more than 50 years ago for only 20 min
4k 60 fps live footage with help of starlink too
Based. This will go on liveleak after their suit fails.
@@_________________404 why do you think it will fail?
@@capybarinya These are the test subjects for the first version.
@@_________________404 it's not 40s' Germany, you know.
@@capybarinya Yes, obviously. The based 1933 people like Wernher Von Braun and his SS crew would already be to Mars long time ago if they had the chance.
Wow! Space exploration has finally caught up to the 1960's. Awesome!
The way he said “hopefully”😂😂😂
You seem totally amazed by something first done my Apollo back I the 1960’s, in space and on the Moon. Both total vacuums, in outfits that act like little spacecrafts, which has always been their purpose. If I may make a suggestion, cut back on the coffee.
memories of Gemini mission have long fallen into obscurity.
Ok boomer 😂😂😂😂 on top of a fucking throwable rocket
You are funny
Gemini, mercury, and Apollo did this. Specifically Apollo 15 had a spacewalk in lunar orbit to remove film from the experiments frame on the SM
as i said in another comment, yes he has put the thing in the wrong way but this test will be actually pretty amazing. you have to consider a couple of things: 1) actual space suits are shit, they're not comfortable and limit movements, big and hard to wear, so every new upgrade is welcome 2) depressurizing and repressurizing a capsule is extremely risky, they did that only one time during gemini mission for only 20 min and like the moon landing (in my opinion at least) was 50/50 luck and skills, same reason why today we are repeating every single test for returning on the moon even if we did that yet back in the days. and i don't think artemis missions don't look cool as hell just cos we already did something similar lmao
@@kettelbeSaying okay boomer is that supposed to be some sort of insult
Wow! A space walk from a capsule, not like we did that 60 years ago on Gemini 4.
wow! It's the first time it will do a private company. It's the SpaceXs' first time doing it. It's SpaceXs' first time using their new spacesuit for open space. It's the worlds' first time doing it in non_bulky, sleek spacesuit. It's not about it being just a spacewalk.
I mean, not like NASA can do that now.
@@koghs what? They can
@@capybarinya Orion is still not ready for crewed launch.
@@koghs NASA still does spacewalk. They did them with the shuttle and now use the quest airlock on the ISS
Amazing that back in the 60’s and 70’s they did everything we are trying to do….but with limited to zero computing power. Just a bunch of very smart people and slide rulers.
I hate to tell SpaceX this, but this was already done back in the mid 60s.
Gemini astronauts, been there, done that.
What will he be doin for the couple hours outside of the space vessel? Will he be doin any experiments while outside the Vessel or just be taking in the sick views of the blue marble?
Jared can only pilot the capsule. I don't think he'll do much. It's a thrill ride. The ride will provide SpaceX with data about their new suit and Dragon. . But that could have been tested through the company or a space agency with a trained astronaut. I guess it's cheaper when you have a billionaire willing to pay for it out of pocket and let him do it.
Thant's what both the Russian an American space walkers did on their first runs outside.
Why not, at some point everyday people will need the training this kicks the ball way down the road.
He got it wrong, the actual EVA will only be about 15 minutes. The entire de-press and re-press process will take about 2 hours total.
They're also doing experiments while in space, they're not just joyriding around in orbit.
I thought America already did all these things in the late 60s/early 70s ?
Sigh. They did. But if SpaceX doesn't get their army of shills to hype up the now routine process of EVA, Elon will sulk.
Yes, it's the first time the dragon capsule will do it, and it's a test for these new breed of suits... but it's not groundbreaking.
Not privately, no.
@thewaterdude SpaceX might be a private company, but it's been massively funded by public money.
@MrBuyerman I mean, no? SpaceX doesn't have a ton of things they sell, they just have a lot of investors and obviously one of the richest people in the world. And it's not a government. It's not a tax. It's a company. Not nasa. That's why it's different. And they're doing different things.
@thewaterdude but it has received a boatload of government cash to develop artefacts and mission systems for NASA and the military. Otherwise known as the government... you didn't think Elon used his own money, did you?
With space-x’s iterative design process, those first astronauts should buy themselves monumental life insurance policies.
yea like starliner is soo much better right
@@RichMiniön-r2m : Uhh…what? Are you competing with someone to see who can come up with the most obtuse non-sequitur?
@@______IV and your point is? if it ain't broke don't fix it, you don't need some overly complex spaceshuttle like the dream chaser to deliver 4 people to a decaying science lab.
@@RichMiniön-r2m : : I’m confused. My original comment was simply pointing out that the iterative design process space-x uses doesn’t inspire confidence in their first attempt to design a space-walk rated space suit. Your first response was to say "yea like starliner is soo much better right." What does starliner have to do with space-x’s design process? Your second response was yet another comment about starliner. Did I ever mention starliner? I don’t understand why you keep bringing it up. I’m happy to respond to other people’s comments (as you’ve seen i have done each time you tagged me with your comments), but I’m not following why you keep bringing up starliner when my comment was just about space-x and the perceived safety of their spacesuit design based on their past and ongoing design process of build it, unscheduled disassembly it, learn from the pieces.
@@______IV SpaceX hasn't had a single casualty and inspiration-4 was a success, how is an experimental program like starship affect their track record with dragon
I think I might put a little bet on Isaacman being the first man to set foot on Mars. All his points of action seem to be describing a trajectory ;)
(I don't mind losing that bet though, as long there's a mission!)
We just had the anniversary of the first untethered spacewalk .... in the 80s
NOW THAT MAKES SENCE. I SEE THE FUTURE NEED TO KNOW ...😅
Man, SpaceX will make even more tons of money.
That's when you cross the line from Space Tourist to Astronaut !
“lower the apogee”???
Rather “raise the apogee”!
Maybe both?
Apogee for this mission is about 1,400 kms.. so they are lowering it to 700kms for the space walk (although the diagram showed the opposite).
@@paulslund1 so high? Isn't it already in the Van Allen belt at that altitude?
@@emanuele7925 I forget where exactly in their orbit this will take place but some of the testing is related to short term exposure in the Van Allen Belts.. but there are weak areas at that altitude as well iirc.
How fast will it be going? And what kind of resistance will they encounter?
Apogee isn’t lowered it’s raised up to that altitude otherwise it would have to be higher than that to start with. Apogee is the furthest distance from the centre of the orbit, perigee is closest.
Mercury, Gemini, and apollo all did EVAs like this. It's not unprecedented and going outside on a rope is not exactly the most impressive thing to happen, and it doesn't push any real boundaries
The whole capsule will be depressurised? Not just an empty room. All the equipment, controls will also go through de- and re-pressurisation and then need to work as required.
I think it's worth noting this will also be an attempt to achieve the highest orbit of humans recorded, aiming for an altitude of 870 miles. The current record is 853. If successful the next missions will use Starship.
This is in a mission sense catching up to the experiments of the 60s and 70s. But that's a large point. For a few decades human space exploration has been delayed or stalled. It seems we're finally starting to pick up where we left off, and that the potential for human exploration of space is again going forward. It's not necessarily about doing something "new", but about starting where we left off with better technology and an exciting hope for the future. Everything is building up to attempting to go to Mars.
This seems more like a rescue drill. Two astronauts are stranded by the Boeing starliner until August. I suspect they may be considering this option for their return.
Thanks for the info both in metric and imperial systems!
This was done decades ago. Remember the 60s and 70s ? I do.
Even for ISS space walk is very high Risk , btw if something goes wrong just imagine how much law suit Will cost!
Once you sign up to launch yourself into space, you assume death is a possibility. A mirco meteor or bolt can take out anyone and things.
Wow, no one’s ever done that before!
Gemini 4, 1965.
SpaceX a private company has never done that before.
@@ButterfatFarms Fair enough.
@@ButterfatFarms so were the companies who built Gemini capsule, spacesuit, and the booster.
Granted, these companies are now gone with the wind, their know-how lost, and their work have to be re-done. At least something from their experience remains...
Seems to me a better solution would be to design a special "trunk" that can be detached, then flip the capsule, mate with the trunk, and use it as an airlock. In the future such trunks could also be used as airlock adapters for Russian type docking collars. Or even as mating collars for two of more space station modules.
Wayyyyyyyyyyyyyy to complicated and expensive, just depressurize the entire capsule, easy
The more moving parts in a system, the more likely something will go wrong. 👍
hot take,the spacesuits are 🔥
Don't say "hopefully" man, don't Jinx it.
“No astronaut launches to space with their fingers crossed. That’s not how we deal with risk”- Astronaut Chris Hadfield
If you are worried about superstitions affecting your mission you are probably not an astronaut.
@@ecospider5 don't take my response too seriously, cause even I don't.
No worries. I’m just glad I found a good time to finally use that quote 😁
They will be attached via an umbilical, not a tether. The umbilical will carry oxygen to the spacewalker.
They have been stuck for over a month and I'm just now hearing about this yesterday
WAW fantastic so exciting!
Well, it's a better plan than letting them visit the titanic by submarine...
"and two hours later they will *hopefully* return" 💀
POLARIS dawn.
POLARIS as in 'Imense in my girth, erect i stand tall. I am a nuclear murderer. I am Polaris'
Using an umbilical as well as a tether.
> WOW! 1965 Space Technology invented again in 2025! 🙆 🥳🥳🥳
Did a private company did this in 1965 tell me who did it also with a suit that size and not a massive blob of a suit
@gamers-xh3uc No private company.. Just NASA for the Gemini Space Program 60 years ago.
- So it's like electric cars. They've been around for 130 years. But now they are new News.
nobody claims that it's invented?? It's first time doing it for SpaceX (a PRIVATE company), also including the development of their new suit for open space. What are you yapping about?
@@mydogbrian4814electric cars are not new and literally nobody says that they are.
@capybarinya .Most people never heard of any brand before *TESLA,* or could even name one. Even though there were dozens of brands on the market thru the years.
Godspeed
Great, first dragons in space, and now their giving birth in space?
Hahaha
I love the way you think !
Exciting
The suits look slick af, I hope that in classic Elon Musk fashion he didn't sacrifice functionality for looks.
A space walk is not an unprecedented accomplishment... the unprecedented part is that it is going to be done by civilians. That means if you have the money... you can float in space... tethered, of course.
Ultimate bungee jumping well floating
At this point I feel like spaceX is just trying to recreate the tv show The Expanse
He's preparing to rescue boeing astronaughts. Important groundwork for the foreseeable future.
Great work again Felix. Kudos
So bear with me here, but I have a doubt. See the way Spacex does things is with iteration after a problem. This seems like one giant iteration for mankind.
Sounds a bit like a Gemini mission doesn't it, but seemingly without further development of capability. What's next ? Maybe a demonstration of a space dock 😅
Best wishes and 🙏
But I think they should have some other task besides just going out and coming back in some experiment or something. Toss out a little satellite. Really hand tossed one and let it self correct its orbit. Fly for 6 months or a year before it burns up in reentry. Anything besides just a walk?
This seems oddly familiar…. Almost like, something like this happened, but like underwater..
next, just give the astronauts little eva jetpacks :D
I guess nobody learned their lesson from the titanic!
And after seeing the Space X rocket with the rat on it…
I don’t know if we’re even going to space….
What?
This is the kind of experience some people with too much money are willing to pay for.
Anyone know how they would re-pressurize in space? I would assume it’s not as simple as just sealing it back up.
I'll do it
You said it will lower its apogee to "just" 700 kilometers. Yeah they're going all the way to 1,200 KM but 700 is still almost twice the altitude of the ISS. You said it as if 700 km is unprecedentedly low when really the opposite.
I'm sure that absolutely nothing will go wrong with this whatsoever
This isn't a fail forward type endeavor
I hope this works better than the Cybertruck?
What's the time frame on this? I'll remember to add 4 years when I hear it though.
I wish them luck but I’m sure they will make it work.
i worked on project llamas thats flying on polaris dawn
Something seems very familiar about this mission 4 civilian astronauts in space 🤔 oh wells hopefully it will be fantastic 😅
Sounds like new spacegate.....
Hopefully
hmmm.. sounds like the name should be spacegate
Some reason I’m getting submarine vibes here. Something about the Titanic or something.
If I was able, I'd be happy to do that.
My belly is going funny just thinking abiut this one
I'd rather space walk for NASA. Their suits are bulky, but they look like they're actually made for space. I wish the private astronauts a safe journey. 🙏 😬
No danger of failure there.
MELT THE CHICAGO BEAN
Even tho two will remain in the capsule, will they be buckled into their seats or tethered also?
Coz if it was me, I'd be finding ANY excuse to be "helpful" and possible be able to stick my head out the hatch for a quick look.
They had to invent a suit that acts like a little space craft in order to walk outside the capsule???? Well wtf have astronauts been doing this entire time??? Going outside the capsule with no space suit???
They should have a inflateable air lock
Why the big freak out about no air lock? Did Gemini or Apollo have airlocks? Test the suits in a big vacuum chamber!
Imagine being a billionaire all excited for a spacewalk and then you look across and Kim Jong Un sitting there, also excited for a spacewalk.
So if they can't repressurise, I guess they stay in the suits and land Within half a day? Also if one suit malfunctions, they can't depressurize. I guess this is a step in the right direction though
Considering we do this with divers in the ocean daily and also when astronauts head up to the ISS. We've been dealing with this since moon landings in 69.
@@DeltaElitesgiven spaceX's track record for blowing stuff up the first 10 times or so, this doesn't inspire much confidence
@@jasonmurawski5877
Unlike their rockets, which they improve by doing, their suits have been well tested in vacuums already.
Bags not to be first to try the suit in space 😂
Hey, Guys, was this launch happening already?
Watch them ace this on their first try and have like no issues at all lmao
It seems like a bad idea to open the door in space without a airlock. Thats just the start of bad ideas converging on one spacecraft flying in space.
RAISE the apogee
Is this for the people who had their Titan submersible rides cancelled due to the recent mishap?
If SpaceX built a submersible that never would have happened.
Every bit of this is being done by the book. Unlike Bezos and Virgin Galactics passengers these crews go through months of serious astronaut training.
@@nathanmahler3743 , SpaceX would have claimed the implosion was a success because of all the data they collected from it.
Yes
You meant, obviously, that the capsule would increase apogee. Correct?
Nothing more American than cruising in a Convertible!
Is there a task or experiment they will do on their space walk?
Probably not. The space walk is more than likely a test of the dragon life support system and the eva suit performance. And also because the Polaris dawn want to be the first non astronauts to do a space walk
@@paolosulit4441 I am guessing you are correct, but I was seeking an answer from anyone that actually knows.
I look forward to seeing them do their walk even if it is just for fun.
@@paolosulit4441they are still astronauts just private astronauts not government agency.
It would raise its apogee, not lower it
That really sucks for the others who just have to sit there. I mean if your going to do all that I would want to stretch my legs and get in some space walking time my self. Why only 2 get to do the coolest part?
SpaceX needs to dock with a Gemini.
Wait a min , other channels are saying they ate just going to stck their bodies out keeping their feet attached to the space craft
