SpaceX launched a rocket carrying four private astronauts to space, part of a groundbreaking mission aimed at performing the world’s first commercial space walk.
Chad Anderson, founder and managing partner at Space Capital, joins BNN Bloomberg to discuss Elon Musk's SpaceX ambitons.
The Elon Musk-led company’s Falcon 9 lifted off from Florida at around 5:24 a.m. local time on Sept. 10, according to a live webcast of the event. The signature moment of the mission is set to occur on the third day of the flight, when Isaacman and Gillis plan to step outside of an open hatch on their Crew Dragon spacecraft and each perform a space walk. The two will go out one at a time for about 15 to 20 minutes each while tethered to the vehicle.
