SpaceX's Polaris Dawn mission, launching from NASA's Kennedy Space Center on August 27, 2024, aims to make history with several groundbreaking achievements in private space exploration. The mission, led by billionaire Jared Isaacman, will see a crew of four private astronauts ascend to 870 miles above Earth and perform the first-ever commercial spacewalk at an altitude of 435 miles. The mission will test new SpaceX technologies, including advanced EVA spacesuits and laser-based communications via the Starlink constellation. The crew will also conduct numerous scientific experiments, focusing on human health in space and the effects of space radiation. This mission marks the highest human spaceflight since the Apollo program and sets the stage for future deep space exploration.
