Polaris Dawn

On Tuesday, September 10, SpaceX’s Falcon 9 launched the Polaris Dawn mission to orbit from Launch Complex 39A at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida. Polaris Dawn became the first crew to perform the first-ever spacewalk from Dragon, travel the farthest (1,408 km) within Earth’s orbit since the completion of the Apollo program in 1972, and test Starlink laser-based communications aboard Dragon. Additionally, the crew conducted approximately 36 experiments designed to better life on Earth and on future long-duration spaceflights, shared special moments with mission partners including reading Kisses from Space to patients at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital®, and inspired the world with a global music moment before safely returning to Earth on Sunday, September 15.

Imagine telling someone 50 years ago that you would be able to see videos from space as clear as day. This was amazing. More videos/streams!

I was a child of Gemini and Apollo. I thought I'd work in space as an adult but the government monopoly on aerospace made development slow and expensive. SpaceX is finally making my childhood dreams a reality for humanity. Thank you, SpaceX.

This mission was life changing for me, I can’t even count how many times I got emotional pre-flight, during the mission, and post-flight. Watching this video made me made me get emotional.

Incredible, SpaceX is seriously one of my biggest inspirations.

[willierants]

What a truly fantastic and inspiring collaboration. I just wished that all 4 crew members could've climbed that ladder and peered out at our planet and the blackness of space.
