Mission will go higher than ISS
There are plans to take the Polaris Dawn Mission even higher than the International Space Station. It will go about 700 kilometers above the Earth, while the ISS is present 400 kilometers above the Earth.
Astronauts will try SpaceX’s spacesuit
According to reports, the astronauts flying under the mission will perform a private spacewalk for the first time. During this time SpaceX’s spacesuit will be used. It is said that this will be the highest human space flight after the Apollo Moon missions launched in the 1960s and 1970s.
Polaris Dawn The Polaris program is divided into three missions. Its funding and command is with Isaacman. Lieutenant Colonel Scott Poteat will play the role of pilot in the mission. Mission specialists Sara Gillis and Anna Menon will also be a part of it. Both are also operations engineers at SpaceX.
The important thing is that the mission was to be launched in the year 2022. But it has been delayed. There was hope of launching the mission in the beginning of this year too, which has now stopped in July. If this mission is successful then the field of spacewalk will open up new dimensions in the future.
