The crew looks so comfortable, no more sardines in a can like Apollo missions.

Absolutely nothing short of amazing. Congratulations.

Congratulations to the SpaceX Polaris spacewalk team.

I too get a thrill watching Rockets launch. However I can't be at the launch site for the launching for several reasons. So watching them on TV is the only way I can experience the thrill and with a surround sound to get the best sounds of the launch. So it was very disappointing to watch this launch and the only sound I heard was from the crowd shouting and the people that work the channel calling the play.
Please put at least one video out without the crowd and the announcements and just the roar of the engines to rattle the glassware in my domicile. Sure would appreciate it.

How was it launched at night but then the sun was visible?

One step from man first step for humanity.

Any live feeds of this historic mission ?

[velchuck]

I just can’t get enough of this! Well done SpaceX.

How many of these pods could fit in a starship heavy?

[fancyhandlegoeshere]

Thank you for this; I refuse to watch SpaceX's live feed now that it appears to only be available on "X", so being able to find it here (albeit after the fact since I was asleep for the real thing) is delightful

Pour calculer l’accélération moyenne en G, nous devons d’abord déterminer l’accélération en mètres par seconde carrée (m/s²) et ensuite la convertir en G.

Convertir la vitesse en m/s:

1000 km/h = 1000 * 1000 / 3600 = 277.78 m/s

Calculer l’accélération:

Accélération (a) = (vitesse finale - vitesse initiale) / temps

a = (277.78 m/s - 0 m/s) / 60 s = 4.63 m/s²

Convertir en G:

1 G ≈ 9.81 m/s²

Accélération en G = 4.63 m/s² / 9.81 m/s² ≈ 0.47 G

Donc, l’accélération moyenne serait d’environ 0, 47 G. Impressionnant, non

Highest since the Apollo missions? That's right, not in 52yr has this been achieved. We certainly weren't duped back in good ol'Nixon's time, no sir.

2:11:25 is that just space debris zooming past?

Hey you can see the curvature of the earth :)

What a show!! 🤣🤣 Zippers don't work in a vacuum and they didn't test them in vacuum on earth.

That reminds me of my old train setup my

Yes this is the first Commercial space walk but it is just a space walk but Just think over 50 YRS ago we went to the Moon but know 54 YRS later we are excited about a spacewalk
