No earlier than the fourth quarter of 2022, SpaceX’s Falcon 9 rocket will launch the Polaris Dawn mission from historic Launch Complex 39A at Kennedy Space Center in Florida. Dragon and the Polaris Dawn crew will spend up to five days in orbit. Their objectives include reaching the highest Earth orbit ever flow, conducting the first commercial spacewalk with SpaceX-designed extravehicular activity (EVA) spacesuits, health impact research, and in-space tests of Starlink.
