Musk revealed HUGE UPGRADES on SpaceX Dragon Polaris for first spacewalk...
"We've got this year our first Space Walk," - Elon Musk just announced that in his latest speech.
This project is part of a collaboration program called Polaris, it will not only give us the opportunity to admire classic moments in space but also the first appearance of the highly anticipated futuristic EVA spacesuit made by SpaceX itself.
In this episode of Alpha Tech, let's delve deeper into the insane updates in both the mission and the spacesuit as revealed by Elon Musk, before this mission unfolds! 
Наука
I remember it well when Conrad and Gordon when up. Remember when Ed White walked in outer space. That was an exiting time for America. In Reality Elon is the new leader in the space program. Elon is the right man for the right time. Great Episode. Thank You Very Much.
Thank you for your comment!
I was a bit too young to remember that clearly. BUT I caught the excitement. AND I was old enough later (7th grade) to track in detail the Apollo 11 landing.
I agree with you. Elon has hugely advanced space civilization and tech: a combo of Westinghouse and Edison, for our time. Brings to mind Heinlein's fictional Harriman.
Spot on.
They will not break the farthest space walk for a while. Apollo's 15, 16, and 17 performed spacewalks 180,000 miles from earth. Al Worden, Ken Mattingly, and Ron Evans were the brave souls who performed the spacewalks.
Yeah! That’s right! But i think they will do it!
It will be the farthest is earth orbit😉
Great news about Dragon 🐉👍👍
Great news great video thank you sir😊🎉 Go SpaceX🚀
Several decades ago they developed DEAP SEA DIVING suits, JEM I think they were called, basically one man subs.
Why not use that concept for space.
Excellent stuff bro
Added life to Hubble is a worthy enterprise. Old but still incredibly useful, Hubble continues to peer into the past and the future. Props to Isaacman and Musk, humanity thanks you both.
Can't wait , exciting times ahead....GO SPACEX!!!
That's right!
Thanks for the update! It's nice to see there are some intrepid, forward thinking people who are willing to push the boundaries of human exploration.
Thank you so much!
I love to see more iterations of dragon. I think the dragon XL should be developed. It would be a better option for Eva s and could be linked together as a SpaceX space station of sorts
Amazing ❤❤
Also, unless Dragon develops some new sort of propulsion system, 180 degrees off of where it currently is, it can't move a large object like Hubble. The blast from the nose would seriously impact Hubble if they were docked.
A wind lock?
An air lock
So that's what it meant.
Great Video and Info ! The SpaceX Crew Dragon is the best right now for transport to LEO ! A better transport to LEO will be when the SNC Crew Dream Chaser starts operating !A better option to dock with the Hubble is the Blue Origin Blue Moon If it has an Air Lock/Dust Lock and a LIDS Docking Port. tjl
More on the spacesuits
Amazing is the word❤❤❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏🙏💫💫💫💫💫💫💫
Thank you so much!
"Wind-lock"? It's called an AIR-lock.
Push Hubble to a higher stable orbit and leave it there for now.
In a few years, retrieve it with Starship (or something else that is capable) and bring it back to the surface along with its two or three identical siblings. Finish grind all thd optical components to n the correct curvature. Reinstall the mirrors in all. Replacd the photo sensors and all the other electronics with the best available. Design and build a framework that will hold three telescopes absolutely parallel at the corners of an isosceles right triangke with 20m legs. Add the necessary equipment to use the array as a single tekescope. Deploy the array to space. Enjoy the resolution capability of a 40m space telescope.
I think Musk needs to design a new space walk service craft that will serve as an independent & permanent orbital space station to perform space walk missions. It needs to have a standard docking ring and a pressurized chamber that the Crew Dragon uses to transfer an astronaut into. This new station will have a small 2 door airlock chamber that will allow the astronaut to enter and decompress for the external space walk. When finished the airlock is then re-pressurized so the door to the station can be re-opened. This new station can be reused many times for other space walk missions. Nasa can rent the craft to the military or other countries for new missions.
Like the old Apollo / Soyuz adapter module.
I’m still wondering why it is that Dragon has restricted how many people it launches to 4 when it was designed for and is capable of launching 7.
Good that there’s another billionaire who’s willing to spend serious cash on doing groundbreaking things is space. Hope this next mission goes well.
Hubble MUST be preserved. Even if decommissioned, it needs to be recovered and preserved in a museum.
Maybe another option would be to dock with Hubble and then bring it down to the ISS for repair !!
looking forward to the day spacex has its own space academy..they will need there own crews instead of nasa appointing them.
Well, it's official. The person writing the script got these videos DOES NOT have English as one of their primary languages. No English speaker would call it a 'Wind Lock'. It's called an 'Air Lock'. If you have a 'Wind' occurring on any sort of space craft/habitat, you have one hell of an air leak.
Use Polaris to carry humans and dock with Starship. On trip to moon, launch Polaris with Astronauts and dock with fully fueled Starship only after fueling since fueling is inherently dangerous so you don't want Astronauts onboard during this process. Then transfer astronauts from Polaris to Starship and head to Moon. On return trip from moon back to earth, transfer the astronauts from Starship to Polaris. Use the Polaris capsule to bring astronauts back safely. Starship lands on the pad without anyone onboard for safety.
A wind lock. Do you mean airlock. It just has a door so the whole volume is in a vacuum. Let's hope the displays etc. are up to it.
That's driving my OCD off the wall as well, another one is when people call another star a sun.
the robovoice can't tell the difference
Thank you for your reminder, it's my fault, I will fix this.
Polaris snowmobiles 🤘
That's great!
If nothing else would like to see SpaceX Dragon Polaris put Hubble in a higher orbit for now.
Wind lock? Is that the ignorant term for air lock?
Thank you for your reminder, it's my fault, I will fix this.
announced news then didnn't give any not already known four months ago
As a kid watching Glen blast off, I was non stop DREAMING of life in space. Watching this video just expands my vision of a Permanent Starship station in orbit. I understand there are many issues I don’t understand but a Modified Starship seems like Musk doing the impossible -“AGAIN” The ISS is Awesome but 90% OLD technology
I heard a rumor... many years ago, that the Air Force had multiple copies of the Hubble. In any case, wouldn't it be cheaper and easier to launch one of those, or even a brand new version of Hubble than to dock with it, safely store it away, bring it back to earth and relaunch it? Plus, a new one would probably be decades ahead of Hubble technologically? Bigger mirror, sharper pictures, etc.?
Those Hubble copies are spy satellites pointed towards Earth.
I've only heard of a repair mission (for the gyros), not a recover & replace.
@raybod1775 May be true, but the real reason for not sending them up is they are 80s technology. Making new telescopes is the only option that makes sense. Let Jared Isaacman see what he can do to save Hubble, but put another half dozen or so telescopes up, one of each gas giant in our system to study them and their moons. And two more as far apart in our solar system so we can get good stereoscopic views of the universe we can see. If Musk can create production lines for Starship and Starlink, it should be a piece of cake to do that for Hubble class telescopes.
@@ReggieArford I'm not sure where I heard that scenario, but there are probably some repairs to some of the science packages that would be easier to repair or replace down here. I think some want to bring it back and put it in a museum.
Everything related to the delivery of people to the Moon now, in terms of relevance, corresponds to the project of transporting people from Europe to America on large pies, although the scale of expenditure is like heaven and earth.
In principle, spacesuits are a good thing. But there are more important areas that have been left unattended. For example: 1. The mechanism for docking in space and the docking nodes remain unchanged and have not been modernized for decades. But there is opportunity and need for improvement: to simplify maneuvers, reduce waste of time and fuel, improve ergonomics and ease of use. 2. For all kinds of work astronauts do in space, spacesuits are very relatively convenient. It takes a lot of effort and time to prepare the exit, a lot of effort and inconvenience when working in it, returning from space could be easier and more convenient. In the current conditions, going into space turns into a protracted, tedious, risky super task that cannot be prepared, completed, or repeated in five minutes, half an hour, or a day. Maybe it's time to start developing a small sealed specialized capsule with a set of manipulators and tools for servicing spacecraft from the outside in manual mode by a pilot on board, or in remote control mode?
The Shuttle has made MANY more trips to ISS than Dragon, period. Dragon hasn't been to the ISS 10 times, while the Shuttle, which flew over 130 times, made dozens of trips to ISS.
Ok, relax. The ISS would not exist without the ABSOLUTELY AWESOME SHUTTLE. Can you imagine a new MODERN Shuttle attached to a Super Heavy. Just blows my mind
How many Dragon spacecrafts are there?
There are four in the fleet of crewed capsules, last I heard. The ISS can't handle more traffic than that. If Axiom and Issacman each need one crew capsule a piece, that would be six, but I haven't heard of more than 4 total; so your guess is as good as mine.
@@Jimbo65203Thank you!
I heard that the crew of "inspiration 4" noticed a rather annoying (and very unsexy) breakdown on an important but not vital piece of equipment in the DRAGON capsule: a really badly placed leak on the toilet
even if we don't talk about it (because it's really not sexy) I hope that the problem was handled by the SpaceX teams with all their professionalism.
We need more on the EVAs. Since the news of Axiom's troubles has been reported, the question of SpaceX's own EVAs has come into play. You barely scratched the surface with the suits in this episode. It's not enough. Please do a deep dive into SpaceX's development in comparison to Axiom's development of the EVAs. Are they collaborating? Are the suits being developed independently of the other? Is there a space suit race happening behind the scenes? Inquiring minds want to know! No, scratch that, inquiring minds NEED to know!! Especially if it's going to delay Artemis. Elon once offered for SpaceX to develop the suits for NASA, but NASA went with Axiom, probably to keep from depending on SpaceX too much, at any rate, we, the public, your loyal listeners, the inquiring minds are very interested in this topic.
5:42 WTF is a 'wind lock'? I've heard of airlocks, but never a windlock. Did you just make that word up to describe an airlock?
And why don't they just put an airlock on the forward entry port? Something they could just stack on as the mission requires. Hell, make it so the outboard end could dock with the ISS portals.
Thank you for your reminder! Airlock not wind lock! I will fix that!
Possibly shows how detached from the subject matter this youtuber, sorry, click bait youtuber - really is.
Makes me wonder if english is their first language…
Even if we didn’t relaunch Hubble, it’d be cool just to bring it back to Earth for preservation rather than deorbit
Massive?
I hope this is not vapourware.
yeah!
Can a human take on 28 pound pressure for spacesuit testing? 14 earth + 14 as in space.
Your 14+14 is not how atmospheric pressure works. There is only one 14 not two 14s. Pressure goes from zero in space to 14 psi on the at sea level on the surface of the earth. So, yeah, humans can take it (even babies 😁)
Divers, even skin divers, do this regularly. It's only 30' down.
A wind lock? Are these AI scripts or something?
Thank you for your reminder, i will fix this
Sausages
Yeah!
Space shutle is better
PUFF PUFF Yeah it's so real it looks fake PUFF PUFF
Another overhyped super duper project?))))
Where's Boeing Starliner?
Do your lips ever leave Elon’s rocket?
We don't need Space suits. We need AI controlled androids desinged for zero gravity. Probably octopus shape instead of humanoid.
This will drastically reduce energy consumption, ballast and will infinitely increase mission times.
But NOOOO.... It's more important to send a couple of idiots on a painful and dangerous two year mission to Mars, just to stick a flag in it and make it America.
We need android bases on Luna (Mining and space harbor), Mars (Mining) and hopefully a base somewhere around Proxima Centaur I just to "Save the Game" (Genetic Gallery) in case Terra or even Sol is Compromised.
But who am I to speak?
What do you do when mechanical octopus breaks? What if it's the last one? What if it is unable to perform some mission critical task?
Yes, send the mechanical assistants but send people.
Musk is on that
@@frankmcgowan9457 Why send only one? Send thousands of them. They are designed for construction, mentainance, repairs and mining. They are solar powered with retractable solar sheets. And yeah. The one repairs the other one?
@@johnstreet797 I guess so. I'm not sure if Elon just talks about Mars for marketing sake. Investors are not engineers and scientists. They probably dream about their own little Millenium Falcon in their garage to fetch some ice cream from Pluto for convenience. "Pause the movie for me, honey. I'll be back in a couple."
But when I hear Elon talk... He sounds very concerned. And I guess I know why. Because so am I.
You can tell, when you see millionaires working triple shifts, instead of enjoying life to the fullest and brag about it like everyone else does. Fame and fortune is not the goal here.
A lot of Blaa blaa blaa blaaa… nothing informative here….
I'm still waiting for his greenhouse lol.. all his launches have been for profit and not one for this grand idea of his. starship will take over a dozen refills to a trip to the moon.. but you know what it'll be great at? launching starlink. I'm starting to give up on this weirdo... looking like another steve jobs, jeff bezos, bill gates.
The single most annoying voicebot yet!
I really dislike all the "look what Musk has done" talk.
Meanwhile SpaceX scientists, enginiers and workers, who have all proven to be really capable and gifted, get barely any recognition.
It all goes to Elon.
So does ALL of the criticisms if something goes wrong or does meet or exceed the planned performance. Which would you want?
The space program is going backwards
NASA= unlimited budget to do stuff.
Spacex= what are we doing exactly?
ALPHA TECH is a CLICK BAITING LIER
Not one mention or picture by Elon Musk on a “MASSIVE UPGRADED” Spacesuit as your TITLE insinuates.
I’ll be respectful when You STOP LIEING and creating click baiting titles and videos!
Getting real OLD
😂😂😂 o ye of little faith.
Maybe you should vacation this channel if your so disappointed with it.😅😅😅
how can it be an achievement when men has been to the moon and back so many times and so regular that it became boring . Please do something different and more than just do what men did in 1960....a good 80 years ago
I don't believe jack shit this dude says anymore. Sad really cause I love space, and he has pretty much ruined it for me.
If I may ask, How so?

@@thesprinklerguy2598 actually if you paid any attention, starship has launched 5 times. 3 to finish development of the landing system, and 2 to reach orbit. The last launch wasn't even that long ago and would've achieved orbit if they didn't have to reject so much liquid oxygen. Complain all you want about how many launches it takes for SpaceX to get to the moon, it'll still be far cheaper than NASA's non-profit SLS.
@@warlock64c I never said he hasn't attempted to launch starship. I said it's a LEO rocket perfect for his starlink system. And yes smartereveryday talks into detail about starship at a NASA conference last month ruclips.net/video/OoJsPvmFixU/видео.htmlsi=n-xGDrmndj-r62cr
give it a watch
