CNN —One passenger was killed and four injured when a “rogue wave” hit their cruise ship during a storm earlier this week. The passengers had been taking an Antarctic cruise aboard the Viking Polaris when it was hit by the storm as it sailed towards Ushuaia, Argentina, late on Tuesday evening. The storm caused a giant wave that broke several panes of glass on the cruise ship and these fell onto and killed an American woman. The boat arrived in Argentina Wednesday and had sustained “limited damage” during the incident, Viking Cruises said. The US National Ocean Service describes rogue waves as being “very unpredictable” and says they often come unexpectedly from directions other than prevailing wind and waves.”

Those opportunities include high-speed rail, electric vehicles, sky taxis, self-driving cars and so-called "last-mile" solutions for shorter transport. "The technology is still a work in progress, but most governments are supportive of innovation and the benefits that come with SDVs, though they impose strict testing requirements," the UBS note said. Smaller vehicles, like electric scooters and motorcycles, are also seen as a growing category. Indian and Japanese companies like Suzuki are expected to outperform for motorcycles and other smaller vehicles, but UBS does list Polaris as a buy.

Isaacman, who founded payments company Shift4, is deep into training with his team for the first spaceflight of the Polaris Program, announced earlier this year, in partnership with Elon Musk's SpaceX.

"We can't go to space very often [and there] is a lot of planning that goes into a mission," Isaacman told CNBC's Morgan Brennan at an airfield in Bozeman, Montana. "We want to use as much time leading up to [the launch] for training as possible," Isaacman said, adding that "using fighter aircraft is a great analog" to spaceflight.
