The Polaris Dawn mission is delayed again.

The Polaris Dawn mission has been delayed again, this time also for the same reason as the previous time, due to weather issues, it was going to be launched on a SpaceX rocket.


This will be the First Private crew to carry out a space walk, which they will do from a Dragon ship that has also been specially designed to be able to do this space walk. They will also be the first humans to travel further from Earth since the Apollo missions of the NASA, they will reach up to 1,400 km in distance, which may not seem like much if we compare it with the 384,400 km of the Apollo missions to the moon.

But since 1972 no one has gone further than 572 km from Earth, that was precisely the distance reached by SpaceX's inspiration4 mission in 2021, with Jared Isaacman, commander of this mission.


The trips to the international space station and the Chinese space station are at a distance of more than 400 km from the earth, no one has exceeded that distance until those 575 that I told you before, the space suits that they will use on the Space Walk are new and are developed by SpaceX, which also in record time, if we compare it to the speed it takes NASA to create its space suits and without extra costs.

Some journalists call the members of this mission space tourists, journalism is like that, the reality is that the members of the mission will carry out 36 research studies and experiments from 31 partner institutions, experiments designed among other things to improve human health both on the ground and during long-duration space flights, they will also test Starlink's laser-based communications in space, from the Starlink satellite constellation.


And of course they are going to test the space suit, or suit for Eva missions, a suit for space walks developed by SpaceX, Jared Asacan, the commander of the mission, in addition to being an expert pilot, previously flew to space as commander of the inspiration4 mission, he is also It is the first time that two SpaceX employees will be part of a manned space flight crew, which will provide valuable information for future missions on the path to literally creating “multiplanetary life.”


You already know that SpaceX and Elon Musk have that goal, to create colonies outside of Earth so that the human species is a multiplanetary species.
