☆ SpaceX Polaris Dawn mission prepares for landing after history-making spacewalk
  + stars: | 2024-09-15 | by ( Jackie Wattles | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +5 min
The Crew Dragon capsule carrying four astronauts is on track to land off the coast of Dry Tortugas, Florida, at 3:36 a.m. Already, the Polaris Dawn mission has made history as it reached a higher altitude than any human has traveled in five decades. To safely reach home, the Crew Dragon capsule will carry out what’s called a “de-orbit burn,” orienting itself as it prepares to slice through the thickest part of Earth’s atmosphere. Polaris Dawn crew member and SpaceX engineer Sarah Gillis emerges from the Crew Dragon capsule's hatch on Thursday during the first commercial spacewalk. Sunday’s anticipated return will mark the conclusion of the third trip to space for the specific Crew Dragon capsule powering the Polaris Dawn mission.

☆ SpaceX Polaris Dawn spacewalk: Why it was a historic milestone

CNN —SpaceX’s Polaris Dawn crew is beginning its fifth day in orbit, having marked a few record-setting milestones on a historic journey — including the world’s first commercial spacewalk. Polaris Dawn crew member and SpaceX engineer Sarah Gillis emerges from the SpaceX Crew Dragon capsule during the first commercial spacewalk on Thursday. The Polaris Dawn mission's Crew Dragon capsule is seen Wednesday 870 miles (1,400 kilometers) above Earth — the farthest humans have traveled since the Apollo program over 50 years ago. The riskiest part of the journey may be over, but the Polaris Dawn crew still has a key milestone ahead: coming home. Polaris Dawn mission commander and Shift4 Payments CEO Jared Isaacman is seen anchored to a ladder dubbed the "skywalker" by SpaceX during his spacewalk.

Inspiration4 mission commander Jared Isaacman stands for a portrait in front of a Falcon 9 rocket at SpaceX facilities in Hawthorne, California, in February 2021. The mission was meant to demonstrate that people from all walks of life can train for and execute a mission to orbit. I don’t know — it made me a real believer.”That’s why, Isaacman said, he worked with Musk and engineers at SpaceX to build the Polaris Program. Polaris Dawn is the first mission under that umbrella, with at least two more ventures to space planned for later down the road. The Polaris Program’s goal is to develop and test technologies that SpaceX would need if it established an extraterrestrial settlement.
