- Edit: SpaceX EVA suits are not designed by Axiom. I misspoke. I apologize!
SpaceX will attempt the first commercial spacewalk in less than a month.
The Polaris Dawn mission aims to hit several major milestones, like traveling 800 miles above Earth, using Starlink internet in space, and completing the first private commercial spacewalk, outfitted with EVA suits designed for SpaceX.

Issacman appears to be the right person to be doing the development of a commercial/civilian astronaut corps. From the interviews, he looks to be taking small careful steps, not risky leaps.
I read a comment that said he'll be the first man on Mars. Seems like the right guy for it.
I’d say he’s taking risky leaps.
@@JohnSmith-bw8dnyou would need some cojones 😬
Exactly the sort of inspirational things we need right now. Thanks EllieinSpace
You are 💯 right my friend.
@EllieInSpace SpaceX suit design/build is all in-house! The sole remaining contractor for NASA suit is Axiom, but they have nothing to do with the SpaceX suit. ☹
Missions like Polaris Dawn are key to keeping space technology fresh and moving forward. Appreciate your continued coverage on this Ellie and I hope you get a press pass from SpaceX for the launch.
At about 4:20 you said that the new SpaceX EVA suits were designed by Axiom for SpaceX. This is not true. SpaceX designs and manufactures it's own suits both IVA and the new EVA suits
I Believe Axiom Designed NASA'S Suits,NOT Spacex"s
It would be more accurate to say that Axiom took over the teams making the NASA spacesuits. They bought the IP and will lease the suits to NASA.
Seeing this EVA suit and being told its real life is absolutely unreal. Comparing the Spacex suit to the ones NASA uses is like comparing a winter coat to a t shirt. The fact that this works, its this much lighter/thinner and has such a simple design (from an outside glance) is just mind blowing. Honestly I wont believe this is real until I see Spacex actually do the EVA mission. It feels like im watching a Sci-Fi movie
The suit was not designed by Axiom
Yeah that's a big mistake from Ellie.
It confused the hell out of me lol, It's also in the description
Oversight by me, my apologies
I fixed it. My apologies
@@ellieinspacemaybe re-edit the video? It's still in your voice-over.
Ellie you are brilliant as always! Well done!!!
The update on the Starliner was good info. Looking forward to the Dawn mission.
Please keep this content coming! Excellent!!!
Cheers from Alaska
You KNOW I will! 🚀🚀🚀🎉🎉🎉
The problems are with the control thrusters, while you can make adjustments for one or even two being down, with 75% failure and the last leak equal to a thruster this means they have no idea if they can control the craft for deorbit or reentry. Without control you can't aim the heat shield to shield the craft or make sure your even going the right way. With uncontrolled thrust from a leak possible it may be impossible to even hit a useable reentry window. I would not board any craft with known control issues, might as well take a car on the interstate at speed without a steering wheel and with firecrackers inside the tires filled with oxygen then try to drive from LA to NYC. This is not going to end well.
Well that is exactly what Tesla autopilot is.
A federal report published today found that Tesla's Autopilot system was involved in at least 13 fatal crashes in which drivers misused the system in ways the automaker should have foreseen-and done more to prevent.
Not only that, but the report called out Tesla as an “industry outlier” because its driver assistance features lacked some of the basic precautions taken by its competitors.
Now regulators are questioning whether a Tesla Autopilot update designed to fix these basic design issues and prevent fatal incidents has gone far enough.
These fatal crashes killed 14 people and injured 49, according to data collected and published by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the federal road-safety regulator in the US.
@@joannewilson6577
Nobody cares. Drivers putting auto pilot and going to sleep or doing things to prevent auto system from turning off while their driving is just straight idiocy.
@@joannewilson6577 When I said no steering wheel I was including AI drivers and I don't want to hand anything over to AI. You could have mentioned Anton that was changing the oil when the car started itself and shifted to drive and pinned its owner to death. (Star Trek's replacement for Chekov or the Military operator murdered for telling the AI to stand down because it was just a drill as the AI wanted the war to be real. Now they are killing babies to harvest their brain cells to power Ai and they must be replaced every few weeks as the cells die outside a human body after a while.
3:30 For context the ISS is 254 miles high. So they are going x3 times and change at 800 miles high.
Thanks Ellie fantastic video
I always wondered (coincidentally today on July 4th) what the inspiration for Brent Spiner's role in the movie Independence Day came from ... cue Dr. McDowell.
NASA isn't confusing - they are evasive!
All eyes will be on Isaacman. We are with you bro.
In my opinion, the problem with how NASA & Boeing are faltering and being somewhat evasive, in their descriptiona and explanations about Starliner problem, is that the press interviews are not being done by technical and development managers, who may not special in a rechnical field. They're accountanta and business administrators, who want to downplay the problems as indeterminate, but are being evaluated.
(In other words, they don't want engineers and technicians telling the media too much.)
It feels like Challenger debacle all over again: 'Bean counters' trying to order rocket engineers what to do.
@myyklmax The only leaks they don't have is the truth.
Being formerly a 'Technical' person I can say that because the technical people are so far removed from the actual hardware that any information given out would be based on the probability of a problem being in a certain system after weighing all the available evidence. And so it would come off as speculation ..... and the press would run with that and come up with huge divergent swings of speculation. In a situation like this, Boeing is between a rock and a hard place as far as trying to succinctly give a direct answer.
But this valve problem has cropped it's head before, and because it hasn't been fixed that would suggest that restraints have been put on the technical people as to how far and how expensive their efforts should be in trying to nail down this problem, and so some Head technical guy (or gal) caved in and told their managers what they wanted to hear. knowing full well that further expensive testing was required.
No it's not! It's a minor problem and all the click bait SpaceX cult member are making it big because of GREED!
I think we need SpaceX and Jared to take Ellie up, so it can really BE Ellieinspace
Interesting, I really hope all goes well. Definitely a step that needs to be taken at some point.
Great coverage with a well-informed interview (as usual). Thanks!
Maybe they can stop by the ISS and rescue the folks stranded by Boeng? 😏
Great stuff Ellie. No nonsense.
They gonna make space babies...f'nar!
great news Grrrl keep up the good work.
Thanks Ellie. 😊
Danger, Will Robinson!
Can't wait to see Rook do this. 🎉
Another great video Ellie. Well done! 🙌🙏 Mars or Bust! 🚀💫
4 suits exposed to the vacuum of space all at the same time sounds quite risky. What if one of the suits springs a leak or has some other kind of issue?
I'm excited but nervous for the crew/ mission. Really need it to be successful and return the crew home safe.
Another great podcast!
Thanks for listening
I don't know why they have so few dragon capsules they should make at least five more. They have proven themselves as good vehicles that will be useful even after the ISS retires
They have 4 right now and one more on the way (should be ready midway point of 2025} They each should be good for 15-20 flights, they could build more if they want/need to, but they don't want to build too many because Starship is hopefully coming soon.
@@markb2773 Starship is not coming before at least 3 years and that is a long shot.
@@joannewilson6577
Starship for crew flights will require several dozen successful landings, if not a hundred. But Starship will be completing [internal] commercial missions in 2025.
@@imconsequetau5275 Yes and those internal starlink launch will cost ten of millions for each launch all paid by SpaceX like they do with the Falcon 9 when they launch their starlink +60 times per years.
SpaceX made a profit for the first time last year because of the starlink customers....
And that is the only part that will make some profit for SpaceX for many years.
And this profit is to pay the HUGE investment in the starlink program (+$8 billion) and to pay for the Starship program (more than $6 billion right now) that the investors that own 58% of SpaceX need!
have a good day 😮
Iceman is doing a space walk nice 👌🏾
I think they need more handrails on the spacecraft, or at least handheld maneuvering jets similar to what Ed White used on Gemini IV. Otherwise, they will have to tug on their umbilical lines to translate around.
The biggest problem for me would be taking a deuce in that tiny craft with nothing more than a curtain
Didn't spaceman already space walk.? Or riding a Tesla roadster in space doesn't count ???
He never left the vehicle so doesn’t count. 😂 even if it is a convertible.
@@minmo2288 but the beer is in the frunk.
@@irri4662
Yes, but wasn't cool enough yet. Takes a long time to cool down in space, because you only lose heat through radiation. And sunlight is as strong as at the equator at noon, when you are on the day side, so I'm not sure the beer ever cools down properly.
I thought that was Starman 🤔
Those weren’t Commercial astronauts.
Will be watching Polaris Dawn, hope you get that Diet Coke sponsorship :P
_"SpaceX will attempt the first commercial spacewalk!"_
The key word being "attempt".
If that Starliner capsule was SpaceX, there would be an insane amount of Elon bashing
@@TonyPham-Creations How can you bash Musk when SpaceX failures are labelled “a good thing because you learn so much”.
Like it is now insane of Boeing bashing by the millions of his cult member.
@executivesteps
Starship failures are uncrewed. See the difference, or you can't?
@@joannewilson6577
Which ones? The ones where people are on the vehicle while it fails? Or the ones where their vehicle is under budget, on time, and is label a test vehicle? Not the over budget, behind schedule, and with humans on-board?
@@javiervasquez29 I see the difference quite well.
When do you imagine the first crewed Starship will be launched?
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻✌🏻
They had problems with the rocket and computers on the way up, they now have problems with the part that will get jettisoned on the way down, this being said, is the return capsule also having issues, that no one has told us about or heard about?
If SpaceX has to rescue the Starliner crew.....how would they do that.....did they get custom suits made prior to their launching on Starliner.....did SpaceX refit a CrewDragon to accept the Starliner suits..... if neither of these things have been done, the Starliner crew will come home on Starliner.... hopefully alive and well.
Is the SpaceX spacewalk considered a demo for the space suit NASA is looking for? I realize it would not be capable of use on the lunar surface but if all goes well it seems to me it could replce the dinosaur suits currently in use. Im just curious. Thank you and be safe. 😊
The SpaceX suit is basically a modern version of the tethered suit Ed White used in 1964 on his EVA during Gemini 4.
It is in no way a self contained EVA suit used by ISS astronauts.
The Boeing guinea pigs are having a mutiny
Can someone link me the video of them testing the suit in a vacuum. Thank you.
I haven’t found such a video, he spoke about it in an interview from June 27, it’s on his X acct
@@ellieinspace Oddly enough, I've never really seen any space suit tested in a vacuum. I would have thought that would have been a popular video to show throughout the years. I think people would enjoy seeing things in a vacuum, like a balloon exploding, etc.
Sem palavras conhecimento e vida
Can they dock at the ISS and pick up two passengers who need a ride home?
They do not need any ride they can stay until august.
@@joannewilson6577And then SpaceX will save them? Or the Russians?
They might not have the right docking adapter for the ISS. But they're doing EVAs anyways so they could always just walk over!
Great Video ! Ellie, when are you going to report from a SpaceX Crew Dragon Capsule ? Has NASA connected the Boeing Blue Flight Space Suit in the SpaceX Crew Dragon Capsule ? When is NASA going to have a Crew Capsule raise the orbit of the HST (so NASA does not need to be in a rush to repair the HST) ? tjl
At 12:31, it's pronounced "saint louise obisko". 🙂 Don't forget to visit Pismo Beach for their world famous clam chowder, and Morro Rock, each about 10 miles away!
Ellie
These people are so cool 😎.

P.S.- Happy 4th of July 🇺🇸 2024.
Why are they gonna charge the astronaut money to go outside of the safety of their space capsule? You'd think that would be part of an all inclusive oligarch bragging rights thing. If it's a SpaceX employee, that is one way to keep costs down, charge your employees for stuff. My dad told me rich ppl are rich not because of the money they make, but by how much money they don't spend. I get it now.
I will be at the X takeover 👍
SpaceX's EVA suit looks much like the company's IVA suit (intravehicular activity), which was designed to be worn within spacecraft during launches and landings, but not in the vacuum of space.
What is the difference between SpaceX EVA suit and NASA EVA suit?
Other than being upgraded in every way, the only major difference between SpaceX's EVA Suit and NASA's is life-support. SpaceXs is tethered to Dragon, and NASAs is sitting on your back.
The NASA Axiom Space AxEMU spacesuit is a revolutionary development in design, offering significant benefits for astronauts, space agencies, and commercial space companies.
They don't want to VOO DOO THEMSELES ,by not getting help .
They do not need any help yet.
With BENJAMIN Franklin on board we can't go wrong…
bring them home on dragon and send starliner home autonomously
Will it be Tim to walk in space? Or will it be the Tesla bot?
NASA , When all else fails try telling the truth.
May Elon live long and prosper 🖖
For what?
@@BrunoHeggli-zp3nl to live through his fraud charges
800km not miles I believe.
800 miles is correct. They are going for an apogee of around 1300 km for the high altitude part of the mission - highest of anything other than the Apollo missions to the Moon.
If I were the crew and SpaceX I would consider fitting a suit for a monkey and sending it out to float around for an hour first. Perhaps try several suit versions and several moneys in an iterative and test to destruction design method as used by other SpaceX systems like Startship.
Except today people would be more mad if a monkey dies than if a person. And it's not unreasonable, humans know the risks and volunteered to do it, while monkeys can't. And intentionally killing monkeys is unthinkable.
The risk is not that high anyway, they can test it enough in vacuum chambers, space is not that different. Lack of gravity should have little effect on a space suit.
@@andrasbiro3007 Well yes, I guess so. We test a lot of things on Monkeys and other primates and I am sure many die. I think some died testing Musks other venture Neuralink. Dogs and Monkeys were the first astronauts/cosmonauts I believe. Maybe when we have advanced AI we might be able to communicate with the Monkeys and ask them if they consent... perhaps for a bunch of bananas ? That said, if we can test everything here on Earth then why would we subject humans to testing them in space? perhaps just assume that they will work when they will be needed.
@@andrasbiro3007 An estimated 10 million animals die from abuse, neglect or cruelty each year in the U.S.
About 250,000 animals annually are found to be victims of animal hoarding, with most living in unsanitary conditions.
Nearly 400,000 dogs that enter shelters across the country are euthanized annually.
Around 75% of exotic lizards, snakes, turtles and tortoises taken from the wild die in captivity within their first year of becoming someone’s pet.
An estimated 10,000 puppy mills exist in the country, with Missouri having the most and the highest number of abusive mills.
Over 110 million animals are killed in U.S. laboratories each year.
Are you a 100-year old Nazi veterinarian? How else can you come up with these ideas?
That's not a big deal. I've driven my tesla farther than 800 miles with my starlink.
Couple times it was sketchy not all super charges have starbucks.
Second all civilian mission? What about Axiom missions?
I believe the Axiom missions each had one or more crew members who had previous training as astronauts for a governmental space program on their CV and were hired in that capacity for that credential by Axiom as crew members to be in command during those Axiom flights. Hence the use of “all civilian” for this one.
@@briandeschene8424 I would still say former NASA astronauts that are employed as "tourist guides" on Axiom missions, are civilians on those flights.
And this is just the First mission, Astronauts best kiss there kids goodbye when they go up on Starliner cos they will be Teenagers by the time they get back.
The ISS will be deorbited by 2030, so they'll definitely come down in less than 6 years.
6:50 NASA has already killed 3 crews for a total of 17 astronauts so what one more?
You guys are much more optimistic about Boeing than I am. I have a bad feeling that those two astronauts are not going to make it home 😞
And if they do, what will you write?
Because you believe the click bait sites that are SpaceX boot licker.
Canoo Is a new electric car company out of Oklahoma you might want to do an episode on them. They have pretty neat looking cars.
Is it true that SpaceX is holding the Dragon ready to return the two Stalledliner at the ISS if required?
( . Y . )
The Spacewalk on the Polaris mission will be similar to the Gemini space walks. It will require a tether. It will require that the spacecraft be depressurized. It will DEPEND on the ability to get a good reseal on the hatch after the EVA, or else the crew will have to remain in their space suits until landing. At the altitude that the crew will be, there will be increased radiation.
It will be interesting to see if the EVA astronaut has similar problems as the Gemini space walkers with overheating. ISS spacesuits use water cooling to deal with the extra heat from exertion of fighting with a fully pressurized suit while trying to do actual work outside the spacecraft. The SpaceX suits are more like the Gemini models in that they use air flow to take away heat. This may be inadequate.
I was dismayed at the ignorance of all the Elon Fanboys who claimed that the SpaceX suits are "so much more advanced" than the previous models developed over the last 60 years. It just goes to show that since the current generation does not learn history when it it is put in front of them, and they certainly don't READ anything any more, we are in a new Dark Age when we will have to learn things all over again that people learned in previous generations. We definitely need a cultural shift for people to have a little more respect for experts in scientific fields. The "democratization" of information has made everyone think any idiot is a "genius" or an "expert."
Use soyuz in emergency ? It's been good enough till now.
Difficult to start asking favours from a space program that can barely function at present due to their government being effectively globally isolated after invading another sovereign nation.
“Could you send up the next or an additional Soyuz with only one cosmonaut on board to bring back two of our astronauts?”
Not likely to happen if it is even possible for Russia to provide.
Ahh, so nothing to do with America's behaviour towards Russia then.
@@briandeschene8424That would be doing Roscosmos a favour. They would literally swim through hydrazine to be seen as NASA's salvation
I'm having to swim thru' patriotic propaganda here ... Soyuz is in current use (mabe not launch ready this weekend 😊) with a capsule currently docked with ISS as lifeboat and I see US astronaut was launched to ISS as recently as March 25th 2023 and on April 6th one brought Loral O'Hara safely back to earth. So it seems that some cooperation continues and those pesky Europeans in Russia are cheerfully space bound after all.
I know its some sort of national day in the US but maybe a bit less jingoism and fiery war talk.
Is Ellie on a retainer from Mr Musk or is this trumpet blowing just hero worship ? Happy 4th of July anyway 🎉🎉
When will they start resorting to cannibalism on the ISS...??? They should start a 24x7 livestream from inside, it might be fun to watch.
I think NASA’s statement is perfect. No, it isn’t trustworthy to return to Earth, but in an emergency, where staying on the station would kill you, Starliner is a much better choice.
The other option is to maybe survive 😊
Comparing the suits is ridiculous! The NASA ISS suits are completely self contained! The oxygen, cooling, electronics etc are part of the EVA suit.
The SpaceX suit is not that at all. The astronauts will be tethered to the Crew Dragon the entire time. The SpaceX suit is more like updated Gemini program tethered suits from the 1960s. Note well, all the publicity images and renderings don’t show the tether or minimize it in a way to keep it nearly hidden.
Ignoring that or pretending the suits are similar in function is disingenuous. Talk about bad reporting to the general public.
Very interesting, I hadn't realised that but it does explain why the suit isn't so huge. Also it seems like a more simple solution, it's not like they need to get miles away from the ship.
@@chrisofnottingham No one needs to get “miles away”. Tethered suits did work on Skylab for EVAs but they were minimal. Tethered suits would not work on the ISS - it’s just too big with a lot of exposed structural elements.
My minor gripe is that the reporting of SpaceX suits (by SpaceX and including this report) don’t mention the difference.
@@executivesteps I'm totally with you on misleading comparisons. mb SpaceX see this as a stepping stone design on the way to ultimately having integrated life support
Gaslighting 😂
This guy’s full of BS
Its all very Bad!SpaceX is doomed!
Not a good look... Billionaires flying around in space, while the population can't afford food and rent. I appreciate what Elon is doing, especially with regard to Starlink, but damn, not a great look here.
Hello Sir,
I Visited your TH-cam channel and noticed it ranks lower than others. SEO seems to be lacking, though your content is fantastic. Wondering why your videos aren't attracting more views? One key factor is insufficient SEO (your videos' SEO score is 29/100%, that's why your video is not reaching out to the people and you do not have many subscribers, views, likes, watch time, and comments. I also noticed that your video thumbnail was good. If you'd like, I can assist you with improving it. I think your TH-cam channel will make your dream come true. I am waiting for your response.
