Dragon and SpaceX crew members will spend up to five days in orbit, during which the crew will attempt the first commercial spacewalk, conduct scientific research designed to improve both human health on Earth and our understanding of human health in the future. Duration of space flights and becoming the first crew to test Starlink laser communications in space, providing valuable data for future space communications systems needed for missions to the Moon, Mars, and beyond, SpaceX said.

SpaceX crews will assess the various health concerns astronauts face and prepare protocols for future SpaceX space missions. The crew will board the Florida Dragons. Four non-professional astronauts will lift off on a SpaceX rocket. The first of SpaceX’s three planned commercial missions, called Polaris Dawn, will fly the Ukrainian flag into space aboard the Crew Dragon spacecraft. Isaacman, who made his fortune as the founder and CEO of cost processing company Shift4, will lead the Polaris private mission.
The first of the 4 member crew is Isaacman, SpaceX employees Sarah Gillis and Anna Menon, and retired Air Force Lieutenant Colonel and Thunderbird pilot Scott Potit – they were selected because they “know each other well and have a trusting relationship that they can build on” as they are trying to achieve different goals for the first time. They will be taking off aboard a Falcon rocket no earlier than November 2022.
