The Polaris Dawn crew of four will be the first crew to test Starlink in space. They will be riding in a SpaceX Dragon capsule, with next generation SpaceX-designed EVA spacesuits. It uses new materials & joint designs to provide greater flexibility. The helmet has a new visor to reduce glare and a Heads-Up Display. The dragon capsule will fly as high as the Van Allen radiation belt, 870 miles from Earth’s surface – or more than three times higher than the International Space Station. This will be the highest altitude of any human spaceflight mission in more than a half-century since the Apollo program.
