ABOUT THE MISSION
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, during which they will work towards the following objectives:

HIGH ALTITUDE
This Dragon mission will take advantage of Falcon 9 and Dragon's maximum performance, flying higher than any Dragon mission to date and endeavoring to reach the highest Earth orbit ever flown. Orbiting through portions of the Van Allen radiation belt, Polaris Dawn will conduct research with the aim of better understanding the effects of spaceflight and space radiation on human health.
FIRST COMMERCIAL SPACEWALK
At approximately 500 kilometers above the Earth, the crew will attempt the first-ever commercial extravehicular activity (EVA) with SpaceX-designed extravehicular activity (EVA) spacesuits, upgraded from the current intravehicular (IVA) suit. Building a base on the Moon and a city on Mars will require thousands of spacesuits; the development of this suit and the execution of the EVA will be important steps toward a scalable design for spacesuits on future long-duration missions.
HEALTH IMPACT RESEARCH
While in orbit, the crew will conduct scientific research designed to advance both human health on Earth and our understanding of human health during future long-duration spaceflights. This includes, but is not limited to:
  • Using ultrasound to monitor, detect, and quantify venous gas emboli (VGE), contributing to studies on human prevalence to decompression sickness;
  • Gathering data on the radiation environment to better understand how space radiation affects human biological systems;
  • Providing biological samples towards multi-omics analyses for a long-term Biobank; and
  • Research related to Spaceflight Associated Neuro-Ocular Syndrome (SANS), which is a key risk to human health in long-duration spaceflight.
SpaceX and Polaris Dawn will also collaborate with the Translational Research Institute for Space Health (TRISH), BioServe Space Technologies at the University of Colorado Boulder, Space Technologies Lab at Embry Riddle Aeronautical University, Weill Cornell Medicine, Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory, the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, and the U.S. Air Force Academy.
IN-SPACE COMMUNICATIONS
The Polaris Dawn crew will be the first crew to test Starlink laser-based communications in space, providing valuable data for future space communications system necessary for missions to the Moon, Mars and beyond.

Sarah Gillis is a Lead Space Operations Engineer at SpaceX, responsible for overseeing the company's astronaut training program. This includes the development of mission-specific curriculum and training execution for both NASA and commercial astronauts who fly aboard the Dragon spacecraft. She prepared NASA astronauts for the first Demo-2 and Crew-1 missions, and most recently directly trained the Inspiration4 astronauts, the first all-civilian crew to go to orbit. Sarah is an experienced mission control operator, who has supported real-time operations for Dragon's cargo resupply missions to and from the International Space Station as a Navigation Officer, and as a crew communicator for Dragon's human spaceflight missions.
Raised from a young age to be a classical violinist, Sarah changed directions when a beloved high-school mentor, former NASA astronaut Joe Tanner, encouraged her to pursue a degree in aerospace engineering. In 2015, while studying engineering and dance at the University of Colorado, Boulder, Sarah started an internship at SpaceX, working on human-in-the-loop testing of the Dragon spacecraft interior before moving into the astronaut training program full-time. Originally from Boulder, Colorado, Sarah is an avid hiker, climber, and adventurer, all of which let her enjoy one of her favorite things – a cup of hot coffee while camping in the wilderness.

После того, как Дракон побывает в поясе Ван Аллена для внекорабельной деятельности он опустится.., вот что пишут на спейскоме:

ЦитироватьНиже по орбите, на высоте примерно 300 миль (500 км) над Землей, по крайней мере два члена экипажа Polaris Dawn попытаются совершить первую коммерческую внекорабельную деятельность (EVA), или выход в открытый космос. В корабле Dragon компании SpaceX нет шлюзовой камеры, поэтому перед открытием люка вся кабина будет разгерметизирована. Для выхода в открытый космос экипаж наденет новые скафандры, разработанные SpaceX и усовершенствованные по сравнению с существующими скафандрами компании.

My concept idea of how @SpaceX and #polaris could create a cheap(ish) and safe airlock system and expand the living area of a Crew Dragon module for extended missions using current proven technology without having to make alterations to the dragon design.
Только предлагаемый проект.

Угу, как-то боязно вакуумировать сам корабль.
Понятно, что он протестирован на работу при разгерметизации, и все такое... Но все же боязно.
это оценочное суждение

Кстати, о деньгах. Я так понимаю, что Айзекману дали скидку. Ведь в состав экипажа входят два работника SpaceX и два туриста. Фифти-фифти, так сказать.

С.Потит как бы работает на Дж.Айзекмана. Был руководителем полета сентябрьского полета (Mission Director of Inspiration4). Так что он не совсем турист. Даже покруче Ё.Хирано при Ю.Маэдзаве :-)
Ну а по факту - да два туриста и два работника SpaceX.
Думаю, что в ближайшем будущем будет создан отряд астронавтов компании SpaceX.
В каждом экипаже российского КК должен стартовать ПЕРВЫЙ раз, минимум один, российский космонавт.

Так что вполне вероятно, что она полетит в космос РАНЬШЕ своего мужа :-)

Айзекман про это говорит, правда не называя цифр. Какая-то скидка есть, но какая именно неизвестно.

ИМХО, если что 8) : 1) переназначение двух возвращаемых аппаратов (С206/С207): С207 вместо Axiom-1 на Polaris-1 (после использования во второй раз в миссии Inspiration4) выглядит логичным: в третий раз есть возможность проверить надежность возвращаемого аппарата. Не удивлюсь, если С207 будет использован еще пару раз Джаредом Айзекманом в следующих миссиях наряду с б/у ракетными блоками I ступени - опцион выгоднее.
2) укладывается теперь и утяжеление стартовой массы Crew Dragon с ~13200 кг до ~14500 кг: доработки СОЖ под увеличение полетного ресурса для автономных полетов плюс увеличение суммарного запаса газовой смеси. Минус полезный груз ~ 300 кг, плюс баллоны для восстановления атмосферы после ВКД.
3) остается пронаблюдать в течение 2022-2023 годов - получится ли обеспечить 5-кратное использование гермокорпуса возвращаемого аппарата.
