SpaceX has finally revealed when Polaris Dawn, its first commercial spaceflight with a spacewalk, is expected to launch.
Polaris Dawn stands to be the first commercial spaceflight mission with a spacewalk. Now, in a post on X, project representatives have finally shared details of when we can expect the historic flight to take place. The project, part of a private human spaceflight program funded by billionaire Jared Isaacman, has garnered considerable attention since its initial announcement. According to the post on X, the launch will occur no earlier than July 31.
com/PolarisProgram/status/1808561217033670969 The Polaris Dawn mission will take astronauts roughly 435 miles above Earth's surface. This will be the highest-altitude crewed flight since the Apollo moon missions of the 1960s and the 1970s. For some additional context, the ISS orbits just around 250 miles above Earth. This is just the first of three missions that the Polaris Program has in the works, too.
